The My Father Connecticut Robusto arrives in boxes of 23 sticks priced at $191.48, featuring that classic 5 1/4" x 52 parejo shape. Wrapped in Ecuadorian Connecticut leaf, it's basically the mellow cousin in Pepin Garcia's fiery Nicaraguan cigar family. I'd call this the "breakfast cigar" - perfect for pairing with coffee when you want flavor without the nicotine wallop.
That Connecticut wrapper delivers instant buttered toast vibes with a honey-drizzle sweetness. Airflow's perfect right out the gate - no need to baby this stick. Ash holds tight for about an inch before dropping clean.
Here's where the Nicaraguan filler starts whispering secrets. Cedar planks and raw almonds take over, with just a dusting of white pepper behind the ears. Burn line stays razor-sharp, smoke output medium but velvety.
Surprise coffee ground note appears at the nub, though some might call it quits before the last inch. Zero bitterness even when pushed, though the nicotine buildup stays polite enough for newbies.
Rolled in Estelí with that signature My Father triple cap. These actually benefit from 2-3 months humidor time - the Connecticut wrapper mellows out some sharp edges. Box code hunters should look for "MFCT" stamps from 2022 onward.
