H. Upmann Magnum 54 Cigar – Box of 10

The H. Upmann Magnum 54 Cigar measures 4 3/4 inches (120mm) in length with a 54-ring gauge, featuring a Colorado claro wrapper grown in Cuba's Vuelta Abajo region. Handcrafted in Havana using tripa larga filler leaves and a capote binder, this box-pressed vitola contains aged tobacco from San Juan y Martínez and San Luis farms. The blend undergoes minimum two years of fermentation before rolling.

Flavor Profile

Initial draws reveal cedar and roasted almond notes, transitioning to baking spices and espresso at the midpoint. Final thirds develop earthy undertones with traces of cinnamon and dried fruit. Combustion reaches 1,100°F at the cherry, releasing aromatic compounds including pyrazines and benzaldehyde that create its sweet-spicy balance.

Burn & Draw

The H. Upmann Magnum 54 Cigar maintains 65-70% relative humidity in its double corona format, requiring 85-90 minutes to smoke fully. Its triple-seam construction allows 0.45 l/min airflow, producing dense smoke volumes while keeping ash cohesion for 1.5-inch segments. The box-press shape reduces wrapper splitting risks below 5% even at 72°F ambient temperatures.
