Mild and smooth, has somewhat of a sweet taste. No harsh finish.
Got a box of these cigars on a fabulous deal by Famous. Had my first one tonight and was totally floored by the taste, burn and overall consistency of this smoke. The construction was tight with a good draw. The burn even with tight rings reflected in the ash. And the taste was mild and creamy with cedar, vanilla and ghosts of pepper on the back end. A perfect smoke!
Great cigars, easy to smoke. Fantastic flavor and aroma
Great smoke. But not to my taste. As we all know flavor is subjective. Unlike the oliva Connecticut reserve which I find to be spicy, with white pepper, and citrus notes. This oliva Connecticut is more nutty like cashews, peanuts. No pepper no tang. Burned great, great draw and construction. If you like that flavor profile I would say it?s a winner.
Nicely made. Good aroma and taste
Not a bad smoke for the money but some inconsistencies in flavor. Some cigars were good at the start, poor in the middle, and better finish.
Difficult to light and keep lit. First half there is absolutely nothing going on. Past the half way mark, some really pleasant flavor finally kicks in. But it is too late. Just not worth the effort. Much better options are available with a Connecticut wrapper in the same general price range. Will not be reordering.
