Generally considered to be the strongest of the Cuban H.Upmann brand, the H.Upmann No. 2 is a well made, flavorful piramide that deserves attention. This No. 2 has more kick to it that the equivalent Montecristo, and tastes of spice an cocoa. As with most other torpedo-shaped cigars, it tends to get much stronger near the end and you can expect the spiciness to increase as the smoke goes on.
