At first glance, you can tell that H. Upmann Special Seleccion is a charismatic cigar. Before all else, I have to admit that this cigar looks finer than most of my dates in high school.
Hailing from the Dominican Republic, these cigars embellished a magnificent cedar wrap on the surface accompanied by a golden lace holding it together at the foot.
Cedar wrapped cigars are helpful for two reasons: it seems lofty and glamorous. In addition, it helps in aging the cigar, further revealing its well-balanced and exciting flavors.
In case you’re searching for that cigar for an exceptional event, this is the one for you. Its flavor had exemplary Dominican components with completely adjusted zest notes of sweet, woody cedar—an intense medium-strength smoke, without a doubt.
Pull of Cigar
Apart from being utterly gorgeous, this cigar offers more than that. Its pre-light smell was charming: a sweet, dull cedar flavor. The head cut open neatly, and although the pre-light draw appeared somewhat tight, I figured that it would be adjustable.
Plus, it’s delightfully natural; so smooth, and has a lot of plume. It is the crystalline greyish white that looks like dusts on a cigar for those who may not know it. Even so, it is acceptable; basically, this is an exude oil, which typically is a sign that your cigars are aging admirably, making it smooth as it could be.
It has an excellent draw which created a large amount of smoke. Taking everything into account, I could not even think of a word better than “exceptional”.
