Coop’s Review Can Be Found Here
I agree with Coop, its a fiver. The flavors were good, construction and burn very good. I love the packaging, but I was hoping for a little more excitement when I smoked it. That being said, I encourage you to try it as its a great morning smoke to mix up into your rotation. I also want to throw out there that I have paired a Connecticut shade wrapped cigar with a Belgian style pale ale, and was really impressed. Makes me want to go back and try cigar such as this one with that beer, as it can really bring out some more dynamic flavors, especially on a warm summer or even fall afternoon.
