H Upmann Connie A 19 unknown code (HURW)

[Rhinoww]

I pulled out a Connie A from an October 24:24. Beyond being graded as PSP and purchased as part of a sixer I can’t recall much about it. 
 

It was 19 outside and I was going to shoot skeet and needed a Cuban companion some the review this weekend, which not. 
 

cigar was very well constructed w a nice sheen. Tight all around, but an easy draw at cold w a V cut. 
 

First third revealed a bit of black licorice which went into a touch of mongrel. Uh oh I thought, had I committed infanticide?

 

fortunately the mongrel settled down quickly to a delightful almost delicate smoke I would put more on the mild side. Not much development of flavors but a very enjoyable creamy bomb. Touches of chocolate and only a hint of leather at the very end. 
 

burn was nice with only one touch up. 
 

last photo was not of the Connie A bit of a Boli RC I Gave to a buddy I was shooting with. He still needs to learn the art of leaving a lot cigar in his mouth while shooting. I don’t think he knows how many dogs mark these stations. 
 

I enjoyed the Connie A bit sense that the complexity would develop if I had let it age some more. The remnants of this sixer will get some downtime.

Thanks for the review. Sounds like it was pretty chilly out there!

I think the Connie A is the most consistently excellent cigars out there.  A little pricey but worth it IMO.  

Been invited to a quail hunt soon.  You've convinced me to pair one of mine with a little gunpowder too. 

Good luck on the draw.
