Not happy with this stick, it did do everything right like the cut the light & burn were all great, however it smoked like dry leaves & did not taste of anything special, cardboard is what I got!
Maybe I had a dud as Iv read good things about them, not in any rush to try it again.

Great in the morning, great for lunch, great in the evening, this light cigar is great all day long. Brilliant cigar if you fancy a light smoke that’s not going to follow you around the rest of the day.
Creamy with a Cedar woodsy taste and very little attention required from this Cigar, even burning and good construction.
Brickhouse never miss their mark.and the double Connecticut is no exception
You will get over an hour from this smoke, easily !

Had this cigar recommended to me by a friend and it did not disappoint. Cut around a quarter inch from the top which provided a nice, slightly airy draw for starters but not too lose as to compromise the flavour. The first third consisted of mainly creamy coffee notes while the 2nd and final thirds consisted of more spicy & earthy. Took around 50-55 minutes to get through and paired with a nice Jura single malt which really brought out the creamy side of this gorgeous cigar. Good construction with a nice even burn and a good ash which never fell away until around just past half way down, would definitely recommend especially for just over £10 a stick. Wonderful smoke.

Just recently discovered this Connecticut range from brick house and have to say I love them. Lots of smoke and a clean, even burn from start to finish. Its a big cigar but gives just over an hour of consistent flavour throughout. Doesnt get hot until the final third and no bitterness the on the tongue. I used to be a RyJ fan but got frustrated by the inconsistency and too many duds. I now much prefer these and am slowly filling my humi with these in their different sizes. A perfect afternoon smoke with a coffee or beer.

Boveda 320g Pack Mounting Plate
by David
The plate holds the 320g pack securely but there is an issue with the magnet supplied. The magnet is a semi-flexible polymer type with adhesive on one side, this provides two mounting methods – if the humidor has a metal plate concealed in the lid then the magnet should be attached to the back of the Boveda plate with the adhesive side or if there is no metal plate the magnet is stuck to the humidor lid with the adhesive side.
The problem is neither the magnet or the adhesive are very strong. My humidor has a metal plate in the lid so I attached the magnet to the Boveda plate (after leavening it 24 hours for the adhesive to cure) I found that the plate with the 320g pack slid down the lid when the humidor was opened – I had to stop this by mounting a humidity meter between the bottom edge of the plate and the lip of the lid. The second more serious problem was that either the magnet would peel of the plate or the whole assembly would just drop of the lid while it was closed. Just could not get the thing to stay in-place for any length of time. The solution to all these issues wa

I for one really enjoy these little cigars. Yeah, they’re not premium, so you’re not gonna get premium. Simple as that. They’re very sweet throughout, plus they’re nice and shaggy so you spend the whole 15-20 minutes feeling like a cowboy, which is worth the price of admission alone. The draw is a little tighter than your average stick, but you certainly don’t struggle with it. Ideal for when you’re taking a break or mowing the lawn.
