Smoked: Montecristo White Series Rothschild

Smoked at: West Chester, Ohio

What more is there to say about the Montecristo White Series? Fired up the Rothschild to pair with morning coffee. It opens very mild and builds to medium-mild bodied.

All of the Connecticut flavors are there – cedar, cashews, butter, cream – almost vanilla wafer creamy with just a touch of spice. The pepper could use some toning down for my taste, but it’s more an observation not a complaint. A few puffs generate slight notes of leather and floral. This is a go-to for a morning coffee smoke.
