Product Introduction

The H. Upmann Magnum 46 is a classic Cuban Corona Gorda crafted with Vuelta Abajo tobaccos. It offers a medium-bodied experience.

Appearance

The cigar has a cocoa-colored wrapper with an evenly oiled sheen. There are consistent veins, and a slight wrinkled appearance. It's complemented by a simple red and gold embossed band.

Flavor

  • First third: Prelight flavors include slight sweetness and mild pepper. After lighting, it has butter, spice, earth notes, and a subtle mint undertone, then fades to a nutty flavor.
  • Second third: There's a spice burst that fades back to nuttiness. Mild ginger hints linger. At the halfway point, spiciness takes over, then a mild sweetness (perhaps vanilla) shows up.
  • End: It finishes with a healthy amount of spice.
