My Father Connecticut Corona Gorda
My Father Connecticut Corona Gorda
My Father Connecticut Corona Gorda shows a different side of the Garcia family portfolio without abandoning the house style that made the brand famous. Blended by José “Pepin” Garcia and Jaime Garcia at the My Father factory in Nicaragua, it uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut-seed wrapper over a Nicaraguan Corojo ’99 binder and Nicaraguan Habano-Criollo fillers. The result is a Connecticut that stays refined and creamy while carrying more depth and character than many cigars in the category.
Expect a balanced profile built around smooth creaminess, nuts, gentle sweetness, and touches of white pepper, honey, and earth. In Corona Gorda form, this cigar offers a measured pace and a classic feel that suits the blend especially well; at approximately 5 5/8 x 46, it typically delivers about 50 to 75 minutes of smoking time, depending on cadence. A 90 rating from Cigar Aficionado helped confirm its appeal, but the real distinction is how convincingly it pairs Connecticut wrapper elegance with the richer, more flavorful identity My Father smokers expect.
