If you read the description on the Connecticut Natural page, you now know that was our first blend.  We did well with a Conni (opening 40 stores in a robust "dark" wrapper period) but we needed a maduro.  You all asked for it, so we delivered.  We took the same filler and binder from the Conni and wrapped it in a beautiful Brazilian maduro leaf.  Sweet, a little bit-o-spice, and some molasses is what I find.  Others have found a hint of nutty caramel too. Whatever your pallet finds, you won't be disappointed.  Nothing harsh, nothing bitter, just smooth creamy full bodied Dominican smoke.  I promise.
