Casa Cuevas Connecticut Robusto

Making their official Debut in 2016, the Casa Cuevas Connecticut is one of three blends created to introduce to the US market. For years, this factory has been producing quality cigars for brands like Gurkha, Toraño, and many more. However, now is the time to shine some light on the family name. The Connecticut was blended to create a mild-medium cigar that would be pleasing to any type of cigar smoker. It features Nicaraguan and Dominican fillers, a Nicaraguan binder, and a golden Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper. Tasting notes include flavors of vanilla, cedar, and cream with hints of caramel, earth and savory spices. If you’re looking for a cigar that can please the palate, the pocketbook, and the eye, the Casa Cuevas Connecticut might be exactly what you’re looking for.

If you’re around the premium cigar industry long enough, you start to notice a few things. It’s a small industry with many multi-generational, family-run factories and farms. While the Cuevas name is not well known, for four generations this family has been growing tremendous tobacco and manufacturing cigars. Today, their Las Lavas factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic manufactures many brands of premium cigars including the ones that bear the family name. Interesting side note about Cuevas cigars: they were originally scheduled to launch in the early 2000s. Business was really good, and with factory commitments for contact brands, they decided to postpone the release. Fast forward about 15 years, and the Cuevas brands have finally found their time in the sun.
