Say hello to Alec Bradley Connecticut. Sounds kind of generic I know, but the good news is the Connecticut boasts an array of big-time flavors, all while remaining pleasant and tame in body. If you love a fine Connecticut cigar, look no further than this one.
Dressed in a seamless Ecuadorian Connecticut shade wrapper, and chock full of Honduran and Nicaraguan long-fillers, Connecticut produces a highly satisfying mellow to medium-bodied experience. Plumes of creamy and cool flavor coat the palate as notes of cedar, nuts, and toast enter the fray before a slightly sweet finish. Or, to keep it simple — it tastes really damn good.
Good news, Alec Bradley Connecticut has earned a well-deserved 90-point rating, noting: "An attractive-looking cigar with a three-seam cap. Its smoke shows nutty and spicy impressions alongside touches of citrus and sweet wood. The long finish hints of caramel."
You can count on one hand the number of different Connecticut wrapped cigars in my humidors at any one time. Even scarcer, are those that actually make it into some sort of rotation. Sancho Panza is one that is always there, always welcome. Alec Bradley's Connecticut is another that I seek out to stock & enjoy smoking on at least a semi-regular basis. In typical Alan Rubin fashion, ABC is flawlessly constructed, loaded with flavor/complexity not often found in Connecticut wrapped offerings & is really rather affordable. Given that it can often be found on sale or as a part of a sampler at a discounted price, I secure toros for half the normal cost, which makes this stunningly beautiful stogie highly affordable. With coffe, as a light Summer smoke or even with an adult beverage, ABC delivers mild/medium spice & an addictive flavor profile that will have you begging for more. Even a diehard fullhead like myself can appreciate the meticulous work & incredible taste of Alec Bradley's mildest concoction. Grab a five pack & see if you don't agree.
WOW! Dittos to all the other reviews. This is now my go-to Connecticut. Complex, no boredom here, but still on the mild side. Excellent summer cigar.
