Interesting observation. I've had only one Major and it was decent, and I recently ordered a box of Magnums, which have yet to arrive. But wanted to say I smoked a couple Upmann Coronas last week that were to die for.
I just got a box of the H.Upmann Coronas Minor Tubos and they are awsome. The majors are the same just a little bigger. I thought they were nice and smooth and great flavor. I guess everyone has there own taste so good luck.

I'm not a big fan of the Mag 46's... I also haven't had luck with HU#2's .... I'm sure I'll eventually find something in the line that I like ... the connie No. 1 is highly regarded, maybe that's the secret
I agree with the comments about the major and minor at's, my favorite Upmanns that I have found. I wasn't too pleased with the 46, but enjoyed the #2 as well. The at's are probably my favourite value tubos, with partagas second.

Im a very big upmann fan. I an workin my way through a box of connie no.1s from 2001 right now, amazing cigars. I enjoy the occasional mag46, and to be honest, i almost prefer the upmann no.2 to the monte 2.

The Coronas Major are one of the best values available IMO. Now, that's not saying they rival say, a Cohiba Robusto or an El Morro in flavor, but for the price, they are a pleasant surprise. Nice creamy, mild to medium bodied cigar. They burn a bit fast, but for the price one can't really complain.
The Upmann Singulares are a similarly good value as well as the RyJ Tubos 1, 2 and 3.
Better beautiful than perfect

I have had 4 H.Upman coronas major, I love the flavor but it has always burns uneven and ends up being pluged, but it is the cheapest cuban money can buy in Iceland
