H Upmann Connossieur A MEG MAR 16 (HURWR)

[BuzzArd]

This is the last of a 2016 box that remained in my singles drawer.  As I recall the entire box was quite good although I’ve been frustrated by many an “A” in the past.  
A road trip cigar, so just one picture.  

Aroma at cold...   New Car Smell.   Of course I’m sitting in a new car, so there may have been some outside influence. Straight cut just the first  cap and the draw is very loose.  Cedar and an undefined sweetness come through.   Upon lighting the cedar is prevalent and the sweetness turns to vanilla and cream.  Smoke production is excellent.  Into the second third and nutmeg spiced graham crackers are the prevalent flavors. These persist into and through the final third.  
For the draw I’m surprised at how slowly this stick is smoking.  Perfect burn.  Zero touch-ups.   Ash holds for a good inch easily, although I’m knocking it off a bit earlier so I don’t wear it in my lap at 80mph.  A full 1.75 hours smoking time and a very enjoyable stick.   I’d grade it a 93 for sure.  
 

I’ll get rid of that new car smell yet...
