Known for spicy, traditional, Cubanesque blends with perfect balance and smoothness, the Garcia team is capable of so much more. Their artistry is not limited to just one type of smoke but has also been proven when it’s time to make a fine Maduro or another style of stogie. This time, we’re going in a milder direction.
But rest assured, that the Nicaraguan core is still there.
In fact, the long-filler tobacco for La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut was grown on Garcia farms in Estelí, Jalapa, and Condega. It was then triple fermented to temper it, make it a bit more earthy and restrained, and cut down on harshness and strength. They’re taming the tobacco, really, ensuring that every leaf is ready to play nice and work together in a premium blend with very high standards.
The wrapper leaf is Connecticut tobacco grown under the mountainous cloud cover of Ecuador, which offers an effect similar sometimes to shade tents. Depending on how the weather cooperates, Ecuador is often a great location to grow tobacco that isn’t supposed to pull in the full power of the sun. La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut cigars needed exactly that to hit the milder profile that suits a blend like this so well.
The company describes it as follows: “Lavish notes of almond, cashew, cedar, and coffee bean mingle with hints of buttercream before a soft finish resonates.” If that sounds like the kind of flavorful, yet easygoing cigar that you’re looking for, you’ve come to the right place. This one is also available in a ton of sizes, so you’re sure to be able to get something that works for you.
A Connecticut from the maestro himself, “Don Pepin” Garcia. Delcioso!
