Gorgeous wrapperSmooth, gorgeous wrapper. No veins. Cinnamon and baking spices is what will greet you when you smoke it. The first third is just a warm up for what’s in store. Second third is all baking spices and cinnamon. And the final third brings it all home. Just a fantastic cigar.

A Stable In My HumidorA pre-revolution classic. Box was beautiful from CT again. This cigar when aged well is amazing. Definitely more strength than a Montie no. 2 but has this beautiful wood/espresso taste to it. When the time is right I love to pull this stick out as it's truly one of the most consistent no. 2's I've had in any marca.

Old world CubanThis cigar arrived with beautiful and silky wrapper and old world torpedo construction. I tried one right out of the box and it reminded me of old world Cubans of yesteryears. Nice strength, smooth draw and nice complex flavor. Different and richer taste from the Monty 2. Up there with the Partagas and Robaina torpedo as one of my favorites. Great value from Cigar Terminal

A bit more time neededBox year of 2017 so these are still young. The construction varies greatly on the top row so I picked out a couple, decent looking, sticks to try before putting to rest. Green alfalfa & hay are predominantly forward while some mild coffee come in a bit later. The draw was great & flavor/strength were mild to mild/medium. The workings of a very nice cigar are here but for now, best to lay them down to rest for another 6mo before sampling. My guess is 2-3yrs & these will be rearing to go.

Better than Monte 2?I think so: Montecristo No. 2 totally inconsistent, when they are good very good, when they are bad very bad. These baby's always the same. Try some.

Great smoke for the priceThis is not my first rodeo with this cigar so I know exactly what to expect. A little stronger than some others. I find they smoke better at a bit lower humidity 60-65%.

Nice alternative to monte #2I get that these are in high demand and hard to roll, but 2/4 out of the box I've already tried have been tightly rolled. Not so tight that they were un-smokeable, but tight enough that it was not ideal. On the ones that are rolled properly the flavors are great. I get lighter notes of tea, wood, and earth out of this cigar which are very pleasant.

The other PyramideThis vitola among the best, not only from Upmann, is for sure the kind of chanllenger which need the most well known perfecto of the world since ever : the Montécristo n° II
To be fair, if this one is certainly the strongest with heaviest aromas, the Upmann n° II has to be the purest, with very fine tobacco leaves and decidedly the true signature of what should be and ever was the H. Upmann taste.
Aging potential is rather tremendous with a liga increasing its power.
You way also find an nother similar cigar, typical for the Upmann ligada, with the Magnum 50.Posted on

Light and airyDecent cigar and great format this Pyramid. Great aroma but not enough of a body in the smoke to get me excited. Good for summer and fall and not to be rushed.
