So I haven't been in the CC game that long and was looking for some advice on the next purchase. I've tried at least one stick from most of the known CC brands and so far the H.Upmann Connie 1 is far and away my favorite cc (although the only connie's i've ever smoked are from box code PLM May 11 which is supposed to be an exceptional box code). I'm looking to expand on the brand with the next purchase and try out a different line. I know the HUHC gets a lot of love on here and was wondering how the flavor of these compared to the connie? Also how does the flavor of the magnum 46 or 50 compare? Any info will be helpful.

My understanding is they arent the same, but the HUHC is exceptional. Buy a box for a hundred bucks or so and thank yourself.

For me, the Connie 1 & A are better than the mag46. So is the no2. The huhc tastes good but is too short for me.

H upmann is one of two fave Cuban brands. Dig in and find out is the best advice!

Connie 1, A, 2, Sir Winnie, HC... all are stellar smokes. You literally can't go wrong.

The mags get a kind of split response. I'd say check out the above first and see how it goes.

I've found the relatively recent Connie 1s, HUHC and As smoke pretty good fresh, whereas the Mags need some time to shine....so it depends if you are looking for something to smoke now, or to put away for aging.
