I have become a fan as of late of these transitional cigars(that's what I call them)which are made with two different wrappers.
Last month at a cigar tasting event I had the pleasure of seeing Rik Rodriguez again and trying Gloria Cubana's new Artesanos de Tabaqueros 750. A Connecticut Shade and hearty Ecuadoran Sumatra wrapper. Rik is part of the team to come up with this wonderful cigar and I recommend every one to try it.
At the light up it has an earthy taste with nutty flavors. Very smooth cigar begins and begins to change as the Sumatra wrapper is breached. The cigar takes on notes of coffee and
chocolate.
The draw is easy and has a flakey but nice white ashe. Construction on the connecticut wrap is smooth with little weins and the Sumatra is oily with more prominent veins. I had to retouch lighting the connecticut a couple times but burned well though out the Sumatra side. This will be in my top 5 for 2010.
