any thoughts on the h upmann magnum 50?

[senor_robusto]

hello all,
sorry for being a bit quiet lately, been laid out with the flu! anyway, due to a fantastic super successful purchase from our sponser, i wish to purchase some more cigars ASAP! one in particular that has caught my eye was the box of 10 h upmann magnum 50 (my humidor is only a 75 count, and it's pretty well stocked at the moment)! don't know why, my only experience to date with the h upmann brand has been the magnum 46, which was very favourable!!!! anyway, the only 2 reviews i found online are quite contradictory:

Im a big fan of Upmanns, the no 2 and sir winston are amazing, this falls just short of those but still f**king awesom, you cant go wrong.

A very good smoke IMHO..

I've not yet had one, though panto gifted me one.....
(Dale will kill me for this)

...I tend not to smoke a cigar if I only have one of them, I stick it in my singles drawer for safe keeping!

Oops just found a tubo one in my humi which I believe I bought in UK duty free when I went to Cyprus a couple of weeks back. I'll have it next weekend!

Fantastic Puro, IMO!

Senor Senor,

Just the other night I sparked up a Mag 50, except it was the EL 2005 (I think). If the regular line is anything like the EL, it's well worth the investment. I consider it the best puro of the year that I've smoked so far, and if you follow my posts, I've smoked some mighty find puros this year.

But that's just me.

Been raiding TJ's humidor again, boy?


(Ahem!) No worries, Pappy. I'm keeping track of TJ's puros and will report what JB stole when, if, TJ's returns.

Jeeze! You're such a snitch, ya' stupid looking smiley dawg!

The New Alliance has collasped and General TJ has gone into exile. It was an honor to serve with you bloody bastards! ... . ?Vaya con Dios, mis amigos! - TJ



And I was going to sign up!?!?!?!?

Just bought a box of 25.... on Jimmeh's recommendation.

Very much looking forward to tucking in.

Maybe a bit of a truism but I think these in particular will do well with some years on them. They got a lot of bad reviews when they first came out but seem to have improved. I'll be leaving mine alone for as long as I can!

[TJCoro]

It Takes A Whole Lotta' Will Power, Muchachos!

I'll be leaving mine alone for as long as I can!

Sooooo, what are we talkin' here....TWO WEEKS??

JB, JBCoro


Good one, boy! Muchachos around these part don't have the patience to age their fine puros, right senor CIV?


(Hurumph!) You two are so rude, really!

My 08's are very unapproachable... way to young IMO. Doesn't mean you shouldn't get some though
