    Try the Alec Bradley Connecticut. A lot of flavor inside the blend for a light wrapper.

    Let me add one more Connecticut suggestion. Southern Draw Rose of Sharon Desert Rose. It's an AJ Fernandez collaboration. Get the lancero or lonsdale if you can find them. Excellent med-mild stick.

    Forgot to add the San Crisobal Elegancia - nice morning coffee smoke

    Oliva Reserve Connecticut, Macanuda Hyde Park Cafe, San Lotano Connecticut, My Father Connecticut, Cohiba Connecticut are my go-tos. On the budget side: Macanudo Inspirado White, Charter Oak Connecticut, Room 101 Big Payback White.

    Numero Uno from Joya De Nicaragua was a Connecticut that blew me away, but with a heavy price point.

    Liga Undercrown Shade is a good one, but Perdomo Lot 23 Connecticut is as good (imo) but at a very reasonable price.

      I found Aged nat Sherman metropolitans from my buddies shop. I like lot 23 Maduro but the other ones are bland to me, not much flavor going on for some reason. Imo. Undercown shade is a good smoke Definitely! Thank you for your recommendations

    Hey Brother! In addition to the Cusano 18 about which I recently raved, I can also highly recommend the Macanudo Hyde Park Cafe. Both are simply mah-velous!

      A while back, I had an Espinosa, if I remember right, it was called knuckle something.( I’m sure you could Google it.) Have you tried the southern draw rose of Sharon? Great smoke!

      I need to get cusanos it's been awhile. I want to get ferio Tego metropolitan Connecticut and HOST. Which features a ct as well.
