H. Upmann Connossieur N° 2
The smooth, oily wrapper invites a gentle touch, promising a journey both refined and honest. Cold draw reveals faint notes of bitter almond—subtle and intriguing, a quiet prelude.
After lighting:
A generous cloud of smoke unfolds, carrying warm spices that mingle with fresh wood aromas. A lively rhythm emerges, though the lack of fullness leaves a whisper of yearning for more softness on the tongue.
The middle passage remains steady, modest in evolution, leaning towards a gentler profile than last year, yet retaining a certain dryness that keeps it grounded.
As the final act approaches, the cigar gains a creamy body and a gentle sweetness—honeyed and toasted notes weave through the experience, offering a brief crescendo before the embers fade.
Reflection: This is a well-crafted vitola, uncomplicated yet enjoyable, a companion for moments when subtlety is preferred over complexity. It’s a modest reminder of tradition, a whisper of Havana’s elegance with just a hint of restraint.
