Video review HERE.
This is another cigar that was sent by Justin Lacy for me to review. He sent 2 of these cigars. Thank you
Justin for your generosity.
(from the My Father website)
My Father Connecticut is going to be an extension of the already existing line My Father and My Father Le Bijou; the cigar is blended by Jose "Pepin" Garcia and his son Jaime Garcia at the My Father Cigar Factory in Nicaragua : It features an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, Nicaragua Corojo 99 Binder and Nicaragua Habano-Criollo filler, all the tobacco coming out of the Garcia's farms with the exception of the wrapper which comes from Ecuador. This cigar also features a very unique aromatic leaf that gives the cigar aromas and flavors; a special fermentation process was given to this particular type of tobacco in order for it to release all the aromas and flavors that the Garcias were looking for to finish the last touch of this blend.
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut
Filler: Nicaragua Habano-Criollo
Binder: Nicaraguan Corojo 99
The cigar features the typical My Father band as the top band and a separate band beneath it signifying the fact that it is the Connecticut line. There is also a black band around the foot.
The cigar is obviously well made and very light in color; much lighter than the typical My Father cigar. The cigar is triple capped and dense.
The test draw after cutting the cap was very good. The initial flavors at light up were a nice orange citrus and nutmeg combination. There was a tremendous amount of white pepper which I rated a 9! If you like pepper it's a fantastic flavor! There are also black coffee notes at the base with some underlying roasted nuts. You cannot miss the white pepper when you light up this cigar! But...will it last???




Score: 91
