H. Upmann Connoisseur A BRE May 19 (SM3RW)

[nKostyan]

This time seeing a lot of reviews and controversy around Connie A, I couldn't resist, although I'm sure my box hasn't rested enough yet after traveling by airmail. I felt the need for a large format H. Upmann and chose between a Magnum 50 and a Connaisseur A. Since 24: 24 for my time zone starts late at night or too early in the morning, I took what I can grabbed.

1/3: the beginning is dry, a bit caustic, but after warming up a pleasant taste of Soviet white bread, light confectionery spices, coffee with milk. The cigar is light and pleasant.

2/3: sweet spice grows and dominates. The cigar is very similar to H. Upmann no.2.

3/3: slightly increased body, but without changes in taste profile.

 

Conclusion: typical representative of big ring H. Upmann. The taste is linear but pleasant. The taste is stronger than all the Connie A singles I've smoked before. Let them rest for half a year, then there will be my regular cigar. Rating 4/5 stars

That’s what I thought, “baton” ?

That’s what I thought, “baton” 

In St. Petersburg it is called «bulka»
