H.Upmann - Connoisseur No.1

[Lotusguy]

Love them. Smoke great young but even better with age!

[MadMax]

Connie 1's are good, but need rest. The boxes I've had young are like smoking a rolled up newspaper!

[CdnLimitada]

Just started my first box of 2011s. Really good.

[Laxman]

Have a few boxes and all have been great smokes. Everyone's tastes are different but IMO this is a must have cigar in your stable. Any friend that smokes CC's that I have given a connie 1 has loved them.

Had a relatively young one in Hong Kong last month and remember not liking the flavor profile personally, but still thinking that it was a remarkable and complex cigar, especially for it's youth, and that it was the sort of thing a number of my friends would flip over. Had some minor burn issues, but otherwise a beauty!

I have gone through five boxes of these this year, two from 08 and three from 11 all excellent. Im going to order another box soon.

I’ve never tried the connoisseur 1, how does it compare to connoisseur A?

There are comparison threads below for each cigar (with each other and also other cigars)...

Have fun reading all that. Also...a fellow, friendly moderator named @Fuzz will probably be replying in this thread at some point today! ?

The Grim Necroreaper?

I was both shocked and not shocked at how many Connie 1/Connie A threads there are...go figure.

Any Monte 3 vs. Monte 4 threads?
