Check out Ian smoking this My Father Connecticut Robusto as fall weather descends upon us. Slight cream and spice make this the perfect fall cigar.
Pre-lit:
Good draw, smooth wrapper, and light notes of pepper
1st Third:
I was initially impressed by the easy draw and even temperature. Out of the gate, I tasted some subtle earthy tones followed by a creamy base.
2nd Third:
The early flavors are starting to develop and flourish. Spices are beginning to show up while retaining a balanced profile. So far, an easy-smoking Connecticut that delivers the right amount of flavor.
Final Third:
Subtle chocolate notes begin to come out with other sweet notes. Overall, this cigar retains the first third notes and slowly builds on them, creating a well-balanced cigar with an excellent finish.
Ash / Burn / Smoke / Draw
The My Father Connecticut was a really comfortable smoke with no apparent issues. However, the standout was the draw. It was perfectly rolled, helping me find that sweet spot when pulling.
Final Thoughts:
I always enjoy a pleasantly mellow Connecticut during the week, and this serves just that. One of my personal go-to's when the leaves start to change.
