Popular Post El Presidente Posted June 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2021 For what it's worth we did a deck review Friday with Nick, Warren, Stan, Artie an Greg. The Connie 2 was paired with the Santisima Trinidad rum. We all had near mirror experiences. Medium bodied start, butterscotch. Great opening....fell away, increased in strength but appeared lost for half an inch.....then an updraft of beautiful sweet spice flavours. Strength kicks in in to medium full into the last third but it held it's poise to the end. Very very enjoyable. Complex. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCgarman Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 For the reasonable price and value, I will still stick with the Conn#1. Will I try a #2? Sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie 1 are hard to beat for value! I love them. As much as I hate to say it, Connie #2 to date are a decent step above. They needed to be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Gargett Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 may i just say thank you for assuming that i actually have some say in all this. also, just because a review video has not appeared on foh, does not mean we have not done one. the rate at which our resident technosaur (no names, rob) manages to wipe them means every chance that yours and others have disappeared into the ether. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken, That gives you an excuse to mooch another cigar from Rob to smoke for the review since the other video review of the cigar disappeared into ether.

You couldn't tell the difference between a Trinidad and a Toscano .......you haven't smoked it yet you goose 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
