H. Upmann Majestics
The Majestics wears a cape colored in muted colorado, lacking the usual silkiness, and its touch feels firm—almost austere. On the cold draw, there’s a quiet dusting of wood and black tea, signaling an honest, if modest, beginning.
The first third arrives with purpose—a confident strike carrying power. Notes of wood and tanned leather settle in, underscored by hints of dark peat. The smoke is heavy, demanding attention.
As the journey progresses, the robust character remains steadfast, with peppery black spices adding just enough heat to stir the palate. The flavor profile stays linear, punctuated here and there by faint, slightly sour hints of dry tobacco leaf.
By the final third, nothing shifts. The experience remains monochrome, lacking the softness and depth that elevate a cigar to memory. A touch more bitterness lingers at the close, a reminder of its simplicity.
Reflection: Once flirting with a fourth ring, this Majestics now holds to a straightforward path—honest but unadorned. For those who appreciate candor without fuss, it serves well.
