This Connecticut shade cigar offers a medium to medium full-bodied experience. It boasts excellent aromatic flavors of coca, black pepper spice, and earthy taste, all balanced by a creamy, nutty finish. Each flavor is well-executed and not overpowering. The smoke output is good, making it a must-have for any humidor.

TL;DR - wood, leather, and distant roasted peanut. A worthy Maduro representation. Recommended 👍 Aged 1+ years, dry-boxed 5 hours ⏳️ Pre-light is very light apricot. Light-up is easy 👌 Goldilocks construction and draw. Initial impressions: light wood and leather with distant roasted peanut. Burn 🔥 is even and reliable. Medium flavors and medium nicotine. Is this a keeper in my regular rotation? I'm leaning into "probably" if only because it represents what a Connecticut Maduro cigar "should be". It is a very well made linear cigar that stays clear of typical, dark (burnt) coffee and near burnt flavors found so often in other Maduro blends.

Mineral barnyard and cedar. Great construction burn and draw. Just not the flavor profile I prefer. Still a quality smoke just prefer the aroma over this.

TL;DR - Cedar with intermittent leather. Recommended 👍 Aged 9 mos ⏳️ Pre-light is cocoa, and dark-chocolate covered black cherry 🍒 Light apricot and black pepper taste 😋 Top marks for construction and draw. Light-up there's a brief apricot that didn't return. Core flavor is toasty wood 🪵 Whispers of leather. Second third, the wood develops into Cedar. Retrohale light wood and leather.

Definitely on the medium-full side, with notes of pepper and wood. Started relatively soft but changed the profile in the 2nd 3rd. Nice smoke.

La Aroma de Cuba expands to Connecticut! For those that have had a La Aroma de Cuba cigar, you know just how great they are. And if you're unfamiliar with this world-renowned brand, this is a great time to catch up. I mean were talking about the brand that's brought you the 93-rated La Aroma de Cuba, 94-rated La Aroma de Cuba Reserva, 94-rated La Aroma de Cuba Edicion Especial, and who could forget, the La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor that's 95-rated and a former #2 cigar of the year! Expanding on their top-notch portfolio is the addition of the La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut. Jose ’Don Pepin’ Garcia and Jaime Garcia combine together to create possibly their most satisfying blend yet. Hand-crafted in Nicaragua at Pepin Garcia's My Father factory, the La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut sports a gorgeous Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper. Some of the finest Nicaraguan tobacco is used for the binder and filler but not before undergoing a triple fermentation process. This leaves the final masterpiece at mellow-medium bodied with flavorful notes of coffee, cedar, and almond. The La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut is a must try and one you have to add to your collection today!

Burn line all over the place. Multiple touch ups. Draw was tight until I rolled the cap between my fingers. Which also caused the cap to crack, unfortunately. Burn line did straighten up mostly in the second third. Outer wrapper cracked and pulled away from the cigars while removing the band. Too much glue on the band apparently. Cigar started to canoe going into the final third. Cigar completely fell apart in the final third. I've definitely had better...

Way better than i expected for a 7 dollar smoke. Bought it from a local B&M and let it sit for a few months. Very smooth flavor, nice looking wrapper, easy draw. Burn started canoing and require a touch up, but overall for the price , i thought it was great. I would definitely keep a fiver around.
