Storage Instructions
For best results store H. Upmann N2 (25) in a properly maintained humidor. Aim for a relative humidity between 68% and 72% and a temperature between 65ºF and 70ºF (18ºC and 21ºC). Use a quality digital hygrometer to monitor conditions and regenerate your humidification system as needed. Because the N2 is a slim, narrow format keep the cigars on their side or flat so oils can distribute evenly through the filler. If you received these cigars in their original cedar box leave them in the box inside your humidor for added aroma and slow, even conditioning. Avoid direct sunlight, wide temperature swings, and environments that are too dry or too humid.
Care Tips
Handle H. Upmann N2 (25) with clean hands and gentle touch to preserve the delicate wrapper. Use a sharp straight cut or a precise punch for a clean draw and avoid crushing the cap. Allow newly purchased sticks to acclimate in your humidor for at least one to two weeks before smoking, and allow cigars that have been transported long distances a bit longer to settle. This format responds well to short term aging, so consider cellaring a few boxes for six months to a few years to let flavors integrate and mellow. Rotate the stock occasionally and inspect for bloom or mold. A fine white crystalline bloom is a sign of natural oils and can be gently brushed, while fuzzy or colored spots are mold and should be isolated. Above all enjoy the H. Upmann N2 (25) when the draw and aroma are balanced and the cigar feels evenly conditioned.
Reviews and Ratings
While there are few standalone reviews that focus exclusively on the H.Upmann N2 (25), the H. Upmann brand and its core vitolas receive steady attention from publications and enthusiasts. magazines such as Cigar Aficionado and Halfwheel have historically praised H. Upmann for consistency, smooth construction, and a refined flavor profile. Customer feedback for the N2 commonly highlights a mild to medium body, even burn, and notes of cedar, toasted nuts, leather and light spice. If you are tracking ratings, expect respectable scores in line with H. Upmanns overall reputation rather than dramatic highs or lows. Everyday smokers also report that the N2 is an approachable choice that performs reliably from box to box.
History and Heritage
The H. Upmann name dates back to the 19th century and is one of the most venerable marques in Cuban cigar history. Founded by a banker with a taste for quality tobacco, the brand built its reputation on well made, balanced cigars that favour refinement over power. The N2 sits comfortably within that tradition as a classic size that showcases the brand’s attention to tobacco selection and hand rolling. Crafted in Cuba with leaves from the Pinar del Río region and finished by experienced torcedores, the H. Upmann line is prized for its consistent construction and elegant, easygoing smoking experience. A 25 count box makes the N2 attractive to collectors and frequent smokers who value a dependable, classic Cuban cigar.
Tasting Notes
The H. Upmann N2 (25) delivers a sophisticated, medium-bodied experience that will appeal to aficionados who favor balance and nuance. Initial draws offer a creamy, cedar-led sweetness with toasted almond and subtle leather underpinning the smoke. As the cigar develops, warm baking spices and a whisper of dark cocoa and black pepper emerge on the mid‑palate, while a gentle honeyed note and citrus lift provide elegant contrast. Aromas of aged tobacco, cedar and soft floral hints linger on the retrohale, finishing clean and slightly nutty.
Pairing Suggestions
Aged dark rum (12–15 years), its molasses and caramel notes amplify the cigar’s honeyed sweetness and toasted almond tones; single‑origin espresso (medium roast), the coffee’s concentrated bitterness and crema cut through the cigar’s creaminess and highlight cocoa and spice; 70% dark chocolate, the bitter‑sweet richness echoes the cigar’s dark cocoa and leather notes while smoothing the finish.
