Rub it in Elliot! This is my version:

One of these things is not like the other

One of these things just doesn't belong

Can you tell which one is not like the others

By the time I finish my song?

H. Upmann Half Corona EOT Nov 2016

If you've ever wondered what it's like to have a shorter cigar with a little age on it, especially one like the H.Upmann Half Corona, which is intense in flavour when young, then please kindly read on.

I find the Half Corona a great option for a 30 to 40 minute smoke, but I don't reach for them often as I find them very strong in coffee and tobacco flavour when in their youth and light on that quintessential Upmann shortbread. This Half Corona was not like that and I guess 2-and-a-half years of rest saw the coffee flavours recede and the shortbread flavours build. It was very pleasant to smoke it like this. I have three left from a 5x5 tin split I did with some Sydney FoH members (I took one 5-count tin) and I would imagine I'll smoke all three in the next 6 months.

H Upmann- Connoisseur A

Both of them are my goto H. Upmann cigars! I'd like to say Half Corona shares the elements of Magnum 46 mostly while Connoisseur A is class of its own like others say ?. Half Corona for quick smoke, Connoisseur A for more Upmann experience ?!

To me the mongrel aspect is more of a full or harsh strength. Not the ammonia taste but more of a wow i am smoking feeling. Usually people advise to “lay down “ a cigar b/c it is is more “mongrel” or full and needs rest. In the case of the PLPC it seems common consensus is 5 years. This one smoked smooth as silk ! Not really any bite back or overwhelming puffs to me. Really a pleasure to smoke. This is my definition not sure it’s agreed upon but it’s how it makes sense to me.
