H Upmann Half Coronas

[Diplomatico]

Anyone smoked these and what are your thoughts? The few reviews I've seen have been all over the map. I have a box from Jun 11 sitting in the coolerdor waiting for the 'right' time. Any opinions on whether these have been ready to smoke or need time to age?

Smoke one and find out.

I thought they were fine.

Good little cigar!

Been working slowly through a SUB ABR 2011 box. Hated these at first but the box has really come around in the last 2 months. Great 20 minute smoke if I'm pressed for time or grilling a med rare steak.

Love them with coffee in the morning...the only regular production Upmann that I really like fresh.

A buddy of mine gave me one yesterday. That is a great little stick!

Nice smoke

 

[BigFoot]

Just got one gifted to me. I'll tell you when I smoke it...

I'm a fan as well. Got these to be my winter-time smoke but I've been puffing them year-round. There have been some disheartening trends from HSA recently but it's refreshing to see sticks like these and the RG Perlas get introduced in the past year or so.

For 62.50 a box I live these. Have picked up 6 or 8 boxes of these and have shared a few of them. Are the best cigar out there? By no means, are they the best 20 min smoke for less then $3? Quite possibly.

I wish we would see more packaging along these lines--great format, especially for small smokes.
