H. Upmann Aromaticos - Late 90s (HURWR)*

[Sir Diggamus]

I had a box of these machine made cigars for some time and I am unsure if they were a '95 or '98 vintage. The cigar came in a cello and had a rough colorado colored wrapper. Pre-light aroma was sweet tobacco. Once I clipped and lit the cigar it had a cream and spice profile, a little white pepper, ginger, and nutmeg. One thing that has been a very noticeable over the years is that while this cigar has aged it has never seemed to lose the punch that get smoothed out in so many cigars over years of aging. A mild cigar for sure, but enough oomph to keep my attention. 

The 2/3 of this cigar continues on much like the first. The cigar burns just fine and the flavors stay steady.  

The last third has a little more white pepper and ginger notes. It burned down to the nub with the same enjoyable flavors that held the whole way through. 

I have loved every one of these cigars. Not complex at all, but a tasty package of flavors that delivers every time.
