H. Upmann Coronas Major
The maduro wrapper wears its veins and subtle bumps like a weathered old friend—soft to the touch, promising enough beneath. The cold draw carries dry wood and the crispness of fallen ferns, a simple yet honest invitation.
After lighting:
At first light, the smoke is surprisingly thin, despite a frank attack. Notes of wood and forest floor mingle with sharp flickers of black pepper. The draw is effortless, inviting contemplation.
Midway, the cigar holds firm to its woody character, now woven with faint whispers of dry peat and rich black coffee. The strength gains a modest presence, steady and respectful.
The final third offers little new but maintains its core—earthy, direct, and underscored by a subtle sting that dries the palate.
Reflection: The Coronas Major remains a humble classic, the kind of cigar that never shouts but holds its ground. It’s approachable, versatile—never the showstopper, but always a reliable companion.
