I was traveling through NC and stopped in at the Burlington store I bought a box of these because it looked like a good deal and I love maduros. When I opened them to put them in the humidor I took one out of the cellophane it was covered in mold green mold so I opened 3 more all covered in mold. Called customer service and since I bought them at the store I now have to pay to send them back to the store for replacement another $14 what a crock. I guess the moral of the story is open your boxes before leaving the store and check them out and make sure you didn't buy a box of s**t. Thanks JR.

The pre draw was a woody smoky flavor. The cigars lot vet well and balanced. Nice mild taste throughout.

I had the pleasure of receiving one of the in a sampler. I was impressed with the flavor profile. Lots a cedar and a sweet cream. At the half picked a few medium roast coffee notes and chocolate. Good draw and flawless construction.

H upmann Rothschild great draw nice consistent flavor love the cedar wrapper and presentation of the cigar when I received it. The last 3rd of the cigar was a bit more robust but not overwhelming really enjoyed it . Solid medium bodied cigar

Absolutely terrible cigar. Kept having to re-light. Taste was really no good. I thought maybe it was a one off but the next one was just as bad. Will not be buying these again.

Ever since they stopped nailing the box the cigars have come very dry and need at least a week in the humidor otherwise they fall apart while smoking.

Cedar wood sweet spice and a dry finish characterize this fine smoke. Wrappers are fragile so take care cutting and smoking. My favorite Upmann and favorite size for this blend.

I've been enjoying the Upmann Banker Annuity, thought I'd try a different offering. No disappointment here. I'll admit I prefer the Banker, but this Special Selecion is a fine smoke as well. Flavourful, great draw, nice ash. I've had about 6-7 from the box, and so far, only one has had a slight draw issue and uneven burn. That one needed some torch work to even out and a bit of a relight. Otherwise, I could see these becoming a fairly regular stick in my humidor. Not replacing the Banker, but adding to them.

Terrible draw on every one. I love Upmann’s but even after resting for 7 weeks this special selection tastes terrible. Even at the low cost it’s not worth it.

Over the past 18-24 months the quality of the cigar has declined. The cap leaf peels off, the draw has become poor or at least inconstant , and the wrapper leaf unravels regularly. When they cigars started coming without a band under the outer band and cedar wrap it became even worse. Also, sealed boxes came very dry about the same time they were no longer nailed shut. It’s a shame that the price went up as the quality went down.

This is a decent cigar. Good construction and a nice burn. Not too strong so great for a fairly new cigar smoker up to the immediate level. Ash was consistent throughout. I’ll be getting these again as long as the price is right.

Fully one-third of these are too plugged to smoke, even after long dry-box time. I just pre-clipped a new box, and tossed nine. As much as these cost, I expect better construction and consistency. Stick with the Crown Imperial, Souvenir, or After Dinner, or just buy a box of White Owls. At least you can smoke them!!

I won a 5 pack of these on the JR auction site.
This review is on the last one out of that pack. Which is kinda sad that I don't remember what the other four tasted like, I only remember some issues with construction and draw.
This one was very well constructed and a perfect draw.
The lack of flavor was really disappointing considering the Java wrapper and with Filler including Brazilian with Dominican.
The ash was a light grey that kept falling on me.
It had a smooth flavor and for me, it's a mild cigar.
Other than consistency, it's not a bad stick. BUT for some reason, it's priced more than the Punch Champion, Hoyo Rothschild & Room 101 San Andreas, which IMHO, BLOWS this cigar away.
So again, it's not a bad cigar, but for the price point it's at, I'll stick with the above mentioned stogies.

As a big [Cuban] Upmann fan, I had high hopes for these. Boy was I disappointed. They arrived BONE dry; the cap cracked and split in 4 when I gently tried to punch it. it burned all crooked and tasted like an old ash tray. Tasted like fake "beach" cigars.
