All we have to say about Antano Connecticut is that is appeals to seasoned smokers and newcomer alike. This is definitely not your father’s Connecticut! Blind Man’s Puff bestowed a 93 rating describing it well. “The combination of salted nuts, butter, white pepper, and peanuts really sets this cigar apart from other mild cigars. Mild in strength but full of flavor. I would highly recommend this to any cigar lover. A perfect morning cigar or really any time of day cigar.”
To put it another way, Cigar Aficionado rated it a solid 90 describing it their way.”Light in color, this well-made toro burns and draws evenly, exhibiting a bright procession of toasted almond, baking spices and sweet, creamy citrus notes that call to mind an orange Creamsicle dessert.”
Joya De Nicaragua Antano Connecticut is available in five popular sizes of 20 count boxes.
FYI: No matter what strength, taste and body your palate prefers, there’s a Joya blended with you in mind. In fact there are now 24 varieties in the line. Check all the other Joya De Nicaragua cigars available on The Cigar Thief HERE

Richard Cucharo –
Joya De Nicaragua Antano Connecticut is yet another recent
entry for this iconic brand. While most of Joya offerings steer
towards very robust and strong blends, the Connecticut
edition is strictly a medium bodied cigar. Don’t let this lack of
potency fool you. When this edition rated 93 it became apparent that many, many new smokers were beginning to appreciate the milder vitola. This an extremely smooth cigar with an interesting back and forth sweet and spicy character mixed with coco and dark coffee.
