The T Connecticut is a collaboration between Caldwell and A J Fernandez. This one is a bit more mellow and creamier than The T Habano and Maduro.

Released in 2017, it was one of the most highly anticipated cigars of its day. Blended by A J Fernandez, only 100k were produced. The Afterburner acquired these cigars in 2021 and have continued to age them in our humidor. They are now offered for sale for your pleasure.

Unfortunately, this cigar isn’t available anymore, so try one today before they are gone. It’s truly one of the best Connecticuts ever made, and we are fortunate enough to have 3 sizes.

The T is a mild to medium smoke with an Ecuadorian wrapper, Nicaraguan fillers and binder. You will experience notes of cedar, leather, coffee, nuts, and pepper. The T is a smooth smoke with a great draw. This is a must try before they disappear for good. Don’t miss out.
