Best Connecticut you've had lately?
 
I'm all over the map with my tastes depending on my mood and the weather outside. While I love a full bodied smoke after I've stuffed my belly I do enjoy a smooth Connecticut once in a while.

What are some of your favorites?

My favorite is the Rocky Patel Connecticut, but I had a Winston Churchill No. 10 that was very very good!

Believe it or not with a few months age the Famous Dominican 5000 has been very tasty. Perfect for a morning smoke with coffee.

Perdomo Habano Connecticut is pretty tasty.

I'm just not a big fan of Conn wrappers, so none lately!

I tend to like stronger cigars, so I try not to buy any Connies.:)

The Flor de Oliva Gold has always been one of my standby morning cigars.

I agree normally but do try the 601 Black because it has big flavor and body

It's been awhile, but:

Cu-Avana Maduro
Sancho Panza DM
HdM Excalibur

And I'm looking forward to my first Cabaiguan this weekend.

I just nubbed a licenciados wavell... nice and smooth creamy smoke

I forgot to mention that the CFO lancero, when they have them, are outstanding and packed with flavor. I prefer them over something like a CAO Gold or 5 Vegas gold.

Also on the mild hitlist for me are the Perdomo Champagne and Davidoff #2 but I'm not sure the Davi is a Connie.

I've always been a fan of the Perdomo champagne.

Kinda like the RP conny as well.:tu

Another vote for the RP Connecticut!

I am a big Connecticut fan. I like the RP conny a lot but the best that I have had lately is the Taboo LR.

Re: Best Connecticut you've had lately?
 
I really like the Perdomo Champagne and the 5 Vegas Gold. I tried a Casa Torano over the weekend and it wasn't anything to write home about to me. Also, I'm a big Rocky fan but I find nothing to get excited about with the RP Connecticut.
