Scrubber Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 The Mag 46 is one of my "go to" cigars. I'm still new to CC so am working my way through samplers but I have already almost finished this box of Mag 46s which was my first full box purchase. My other go to stick is the BRC. This particular stick is probably not the best example from the box. It was slightly under filled around the foot but other than that the construction was spot on. Draw was perfect. Aroma at cold was of cedar and barnyard. First third: right from the first light I get nice spiced wood and that Cuban twang. Before actually tasting CC I had read lots of reviews all talking about that Cuban twang. I had no idea what that meant until having a Mag 46. I am also getting a slight citrus note. Can't quite put my finger on it but I'd settle for orange zest. Second third: the citrus seems to fade but I am still getting the spiced wood notes. The spice is toned down abit too. I am also getting hints of leather and coffee. Final third: the leather and coffee ramp up and when it gets close to the nub the citrus returns. I almost always love the final third of Mag 46s. The strength also ramped up towards the end of the stick but that only seemed to enhance the flavours more. Overall, a classic cigar that I would be more than happy to have daily. I am very rarely disappointed with a Mag 46. I've heard they are good aging cigars so I'm looking to get a box soon to put away and see how they develop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2

Habanos2000 Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 If I could only smoke Mag 46's for the rest of my life I'd still be a happy man. Great cigar! Thanks for your review.
ElAbogado Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Nice review. Mag 46 is one of my favorites as well - it was also my first CC box purchase.

JohnS Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Nice review mate! The H.Upmann Magnum 46 is a common 'go to' cigar amongst enthusiasts, with such classic flavours. I've got to get me a box!

ceegarone Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Nice review and spot on. The two I have enjoyed have left me wanting more. Saving some coin to pick up a box after the holidays. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
