A beloved Cuban corona gorda from H. Upmann's Magnum line — cedar, toasted nuts and mild coffee in a smooth, refined, mild-to-medium smoke.
Flavor profile
Earthy · Roast · Creamy · Spice
The Magnum 46 is one of the most consistently praised cigars in the Cuban H. Upmann range. At 5.6 inches with a 46 ring gauge, it's a classic corona gorda — long enough to develop, slim enough to stay elegant — built entirely from Vuelta Abajo tobacco.
What it tastes like
Expect cedar, toasted nuts, and a gentle coffee sweetness, all wrapped in the creamy, refined character H. Upmann is known for. The light chocolate-brown wrapper hints at the smoothness inside. This sits firmly in mild-to-medium territory, so the flavors come through clean rather than heavy, which is exactly why so many smokers keep a box on hand.
Who it's for
This is a wonderful everyday Cuban and a smart pick for someone exploring Habanos without jumping straight to a powerhouse. The balance and easy draw make it forgiving, while the depth keeps experienced palates interested. It pairs beautifully with espresso or an aged rum.
If you like this and want a thicker, longer cousin, try the Magnum 50. Curious how Cuba's tobacco compares to Nicaragua's punchier leaf? Read our Cuban vs Nicaraguan cigars breakdown. Log it and rate it in the Casa DNC app to track your favorites.
