dicko Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 I like the H Upmann flavour profile. Had a couple of cabs of the Magnum 46's which have been excellent. How is the rest of the range? Might spring for a box. No. 2's ?? Sir Winston?Any others worth noting? Cheers everyone!! Dicko
Ophidion Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 The no 2s from late 2011 have been incredibly good. Amazing construction with great flavor.
El Capitan Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Dit-to on the Mag 46's Dicko. Box from 2 years ago smoking superb right now. Cheers, Mark
Croz71 Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Hi Dicko, my mag 48 EL are smoking great. Also got HQ cab of mag 46 2010 that are very good I have a box of sir Winnie's form June 2011which I haven't tried yet If you are interested in any of these, I will be more than happy to bring a couple along to the next Perth herf for you Cheers Allan
danclough Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 The Mag 48 EL's are probably my favorite small smoke at the moment. I've also had some Mag 50's recently and they've all been excellent.
jacktarnold Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Both the No 2 and Mag 50s are smoking great right now. I'm working through a box of each and I've been more than pleased.
Hohenthal Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 The no 2s from late 2011 have been incredibly good. Amazing construction with great flavor. yes indeed, had one last night,
tydra Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 The Magnum 50's provide a wider range of flavors IMHO, won't be disappointed.
Smallclub Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 The half-corona and the Royal Robusto are very good despite their youth. The Magnum 48 is superb if you like the EL specificity.
IcedCanuck Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Magnum 46, 48, and 50 are all smoking great. Half coronas are also smoking great. I really like Sir Winston as well but I personally have found recent production to not be as good .... I really think they've dropped the ball on them.
Erm310mce Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 I think the Connie #1s are great cigars and fly somewhat under the radar behind the Mag 46 and #2s. They are also a great value, I've been enjoying mine very much. Rob picks out some great ones. Cheers

Cheers +1 on this post If you want a great representation of a delightful smooth Upmann can't beat a good box of connie's. A very underrated cigar in my opinion
SCgarman Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 How about the Up petit coronas? just made a purchase and have never tried em!
Pilsner14 Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Smoked a H.U. Royal Robusto the other night. Pretty impressed and a very solid cigar right to the nub! JD
CaptainQuintero Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 You've already been having probably the top performer IMO with the 46's. Obviously the SW's are great but not exactly an every day smoke!
Rushman Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 From 2011, I've thoroughly enjoyed the #2's and the half coronas. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=20.631725,-87.070597
ramon_cojones Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 I've a box of 2s from 10 or 11 that has not done anything for me, when I got them were completely flavorless and have steadily improved but not something I could recommend to anyone.
jazzbass Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 I have 3 No 2's from '07 that are divine. The Mag 48's are still a favorite.
Bahnofstrasse Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 Royal Robustos are one of the top cigars of 2012 imo... the Half Coronas has gone into my rotation, along side the Partagas shorts, as a "go to" quick smoke.
bassman Posted August 4, 2012 Posted August 4, 2012 I was quite fond of the 2001 Upmann #2s, but currently don't own any Upmanns at all. Had some Sir Winstons boxes, but traded them for Bolivar CGs & spare change.
Dbone Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 I love the Marca, big time. For myself there's not much better than the Mag 46's or Connie 1's. I've not yet finished my first box of Winnie's, but they're outstanding as well.

I've not yet finished my first box of Winnie's, but they're outstanding as well. I'm with Andy here...46, connie 1, sir winnie I do want to love the half corona and have had a few stellar Mag50's, but find them less consistent.
westg Posted August 5, 2012 Posted August 5, 2012 48 EL very nice...Have had one Royal Rubusto..and was so glad to snare a box last week, as have been unable to purchase . Always been sold out.
