H. Upmann Magnum 50

Covered in a milk-chocolate wrapper, this toro has a fabulous draw and burns consistently throughout the entire smoke. H. Upmann might be a lesser popular cigar than some big Cuban names, but the Magnum 50 is a perfect example of a sleeper. The 6 3/8-inch by 50-ring-gauge, all-Cuban smoke has a medium body that has layers of complex layers that show themselves in sequence.

This heftier toro has mellow, sweet flavors like honey and gingerbread that are compounded by earthier flavors of wood, coffee and spice with some nuttier flavors bridging the gap. This is a smoke that will last you over an hour, so it’s perfect for a good session of talking with close family and friends, and its milder nature makes it great for any time of day. Smoke this cigar with something on the lighter side such as a smooth Scotch or an aged rum without the spices. That’s living. Sold in 25-count boxes.
