General Information
The H. Upmann Magnum 48 Edición Limitada 2009 is a hand - made Cuban short robusto. It has a medium strength and a price of about $10 each. It's similar in length to the Petit Edmundo but with a slightly smaller ring gauge.
Appearance
This short and stout cigar has a deep - brown wrapper. Visible veins are lighter than the wrapper. It emits a sour tobacco flavor with cocoa notes and has a perfect triple cap. Pre - draw has obvious black pepper.
Construction
It is well - constructed with an easy draw, straight burn, and firm ash. The only minor issue could be a desire for more smoke.
Flavor
- One third: The first pulls are tender. Spice is barely perceptible, and cedary flavors intersect with cocoa and chocolate. The smoke is round, slightly sweet, medium - to full - bodied.
- Two thirds: Power increases, but balance is maintained. There's a lot of wood, and sweetness attenuates near the second band and then reappears.
- Three thirds: The finish is long and soothing, with earth and wood flavors.
Value
It deserves a place in the humidor, and it's worth buying a box to see how it evolves over time.
