Storage Instructions
For long term enjoyment of the H. UPMANN connossieur n2 keep your cigars in a well maintained humidor. Aim for a stable relative humidity between 68% and 72% and a temperature in the range of 65ºF to 70ºF (18ºC to 21ºC). This range supports the delicate oils in the wrapper and preserves the cigar’s balance. Because this is a classic H. UPMANN offering with a refined and relatively thin wrapper you may find 68% to 70% especially flattering to the texture and burn. Use a calibrated hygrometer and rehydrate or dehumidify gradually to avoid rapid swings. Store cigars horizontally on Spanish cedar shelves when possible and keep them away from strong odors and direct sunlight. If you need short term transport or travel storage use a travel humidor or sealed tube with a small humidification source to maintain humidity without over saturating the wrapper.
Care Tips
Handle the H. UPMANN connossieur n2 gently by the body to avoid pressure marks on the cap and wrapper. Keep your fingernails clean and avoid pinching the foot or cap. Use a sharp straight cutter or guillotine to make a clean cut and toast the foot evenly before drawing. New arrivals benefit from acclimation in your humidor for two to four weeks before smoking. For those who enjoy added complexity consider aging cigars for six months to two years depending on your taste. Rotate stock periodically so older cigars are smoked first and check the humidor regularly to ensure even conditions. When preparing to smoke avoid over handling the cigar and enjoy it at room temperature to appreciate the full range of flavors.

History and Heritage
H. Upmann is one of the oldest and most respected names in cigars, founded in the mid 19th century and known for its elegant, traditional approach. Over time the brand has been produced in both Cuban and non Cuban factories, but the hallmark has remained the same, a focus on craftsmanship and consistency. The connoisseur line is presented as a thoughtful expression for experienced smokers who value balance over punch. Expect careful construction, aged filler tobaccos and a wrapper selected for smoothness, all reflecting H. Upmann’s long standing reputation for approachable, well made cigars.
Tasting Notes
The H. UPMANN connossieur N2 is a refined, medium-bodied smoke that opens with bright cedar and toasted almond, quickly revealing rich layers of dark chocolate and freshly brewed espresso. Mid-smoke a gentle black-pepper spice and savory leather emerge against a creamy, velvety core, while subtle floral and cocoa aromas linger on the retrohale. The finish is long and silky, leaving a warm, nutty aftertaste with dry cedar and a hint of sweet tobacco. Its measured strength and impeccable construction allow each nuance to develop slowly, rewarding a patient, contemplative draw.
Pairing Suggestions
Aged Caribbean rum — the deep molasses sweetness and spice of a well-aged rum complements the cigar’s dark-chocolate and toasted-nut notes while enhancing its creamy finish; Single-origin espresso — a bold, concentrated espresso mirrors the cigar’s roasted-coffee character and cleanses the palate between draws for a balanced interplay; 70–75% dark chocolate or an aged Manchego — bittersweet chocolate amplifies cocoa and leather accents, while a nutty, aged cheese echoes almond and savory tones, bringing out the cigar’s layered complexity.
