Rock-A-Feller Cigars Vintage Nicaraguan Connecticut - Cigar Review by Kaplowitz

"Have you Kaplowitz'd to-day?"


Rock-A-Feller Vintage Nicaraguan Connecticut
WRAPPER: Ecuadorian Connecticut
BINDER: Indonesian
FILLER: Nicaraguan

FORMAT: Robusto (552)
ORIGIN: American Caribbean Cigars, Nicaragua
STRENGTH: Medium

NOTES: A table sugar sweetness permeates the profile, tho not cloyingly-so. Cardamom, white ginger. Avoids the green note pitfall of many a Connie. Delicate white pepper. Buttery/creamy. Floral & orange blossom notes. Lightly toasted grains and sunny earth underbelly. Increasingly simply pleasurable.

Excellent smoke out-put off each end and both passively & actively. Burns on an even line. Top-leaf feels a bit loosely appointed but that don't hinder performance. Included in said performance is a smooth and even tension'd (medium) draw, gate-to-wire. Too, ash builds particularly thick & oily.

FINAL GRADE: A-
A 90-100 B 80-89 C 70-79 D 60-69 F 0-59
