From mobile (apologies for any spelling/formatting errors):
Smoking the cigar at the moment, I was about to post a ‘disappointed’ review. White pepper and little else to begin with. I also had to make quite a deep cut to get a decent draw . . .
then . . . the middle third:
the creaminess starts to come through: the burn perfect. Still the pepper, but calmed down by the creamy, faint vanilla sweetness. Paired with a Shackleton as an experiment but I think it would go better with a nice rum.
Down to the last third, the draw is still firm, but not tight, a little leather coming through, the burn still perfect.
I had wondered if the Caldwell line was partly hype, but this cigar (the lower end of their pricing) is at least good enough to make me want to work my way up.
The build is excellent, the draw so-so (if like me you like lots of smoke) and the true flavour takes a wee while to come through, but this is definitely proof that the Caldwell line isn’t just all hype. I’ll definitely be buying another to judge consistency, at the very least.
Last third: now more

Bought as a Camacho sampler pack. First impressions, a tidy compact, well made panatella. Punched it and had a pleasant 15-20 mins in the garden. Not much complexity in the flavour, but never the less it was a fairly pleasant experience, maybe a little on the bolder side of mild. It stayed lit, burned evenly so I look forward to trying the other two in the sampler pack, I wouldnt be dissapointed if they were both as good as this.

As a newbie this hit all the right spots - especially pleased as my first Hoyo experience I did not enjoy

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 !

Initially added to an order just to clear the free shipping threshold but I was surprised that itÂ’s actually a dead on cigar. Great cigar for the price folks !
Great for those of us like a slightly larger ring gauge but donÂ’t always have the time to smoke a double toro

An absolute exquisite smoke. I aged it for around 7 months and will be buying more. Very highly recommend this.
