hebbe72 Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 What are your general opinion on these? Are they just cheap but not so cheerful or are they worth the "investment". Am about to order some summer yard cigars and would like your input.

smokenj Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 I picked up a box a few months ago. Not too sure on the date without looking. It was a decent cheapie smoke. There are better and there are worse.
maxcjs0101 Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 I smoked almost half a box of these (from 2013) and they are decent at most. Straight woody tobacco flavours.
sengjc Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Let it rest for 6 months to a year and they become really good.
Destino30 Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Sorry for being late to the game here, but I think that the Majestics are fantastic cheap smokes (yes - cheerful). Mine are LUB Feb 14. Just about time to buy more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
skarolla Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Love em! 2 boxes on hand. Prefer them over the Half Corona which I find to be less dependable.
Destino30 Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Love em! 2 boxes on hand. Prefer them over the Half Corona which I find to be less dependable. I sort of agree - the HU half corona is a spicy little bomb but it can be inconsistent. I think that is due to its short length. There isn't enough time to let the flavors all develop. That's why I enjoy the length of the Majestics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
luv2fly Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 I have had 2 boxes. They were great and I burned through them quick. need more.
skarolla Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Had one last night that really blew me away. Almost like a small Connie 1 in it's flavour progression and finished really, really rich. 1
Hunter1974 Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 got a box in the mail now will have to burn one rott and give you an update
Hunter1974 Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Just smoked rott absolutely amazing for the size and price will be getting more!!!
NSXCIGAR Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 Smoked a few 2014 Majestics last week and was impressed. I also had 2 Regalias and the Majestics were far superior. (It was Upmann sample week for me, lol) Had much more in common with the HUPC and Mag 46 and is pretty much a corona vitola. I'd say it's worthy to carry the title of Upmann Corona and the price is excellent at about 70% of the PC price. If you like Upmann, you should be buying these. 2
sactochris Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 I've really been enjoying the box I got recently.
Dude Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 It's been my experience with Upmann Majestics that even an oily, dark, marbled Majestic needs time. Most of the time they start getting rough about half way through....which could be worse...they are long!! I've got a couple of.boxes put away. I'm sure they will.mellow out. Anyone tried them with 3 or.more years rest?
MHTan Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 bought 20 sticks. I was iffy for the first 2 sticks. Kept them for a few months and the 3 I've had so far was just a joy. Nice flavours of cream/vanilla from the 2nd third onwards. Smooth on the retrohale. I'd recommend these for price conscious smokers. 2
Dave001 Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 I have a few boxes of these from 2006 and the aging really does wonders to them lovely baked bread and cream just a wonderful smoke
ErikB Posted December 14, 2016 Posted December 14, 2016 I'm actually grateful Habanos make theseVerzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk 1
JZBdano Posted January 18, 2017 Posted January 18, 2017 I recently went through a box of 2007s. I rarely smoke the same cigar twice in a week but this box only lasted 2 months. Great toasted tobacco, milk coffee, light chocolate and burnt sugar were the main flavors I got out of them. Pretty complex with a fairly distinct transition from 1st third to 2nd. Never had a fresh one but I do have a 2014 I received with a trade and I will report back after I smoke it.
Pommy Puffer Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Had one last summer straight out of the shop, and it was a flavour bomb.
Derboesekoenig Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Are these still superior to the regalias? Because I was not a fan of those
Brian24 Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 I tried 2 singles from FOH. I can’t wait to get a box. Bump on the flavor bomb comment.
Fuzz Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 I handed out a few last weekend. Overall opinion was that it is a good, solid cigar. No real wow factor, just an enjoyable cigar to while away an hour or so, with nice flavours and a bit a complexity. 3
