The My Father Connecticut & Blue Label Line: What Makes Them Stand Out? An Interview With Cally

Join Lewis as he sits down with Cally Humphrey from TOR to discuss the recent releases of the My Father Connecticut and Blue Label Line.

My Father Connecticut is an extension to the existing My Father and My Father Le Bijou lines. The cigar is blended by Jose 'Pepin' Garcia and his son Jaime Garcia at the My Father Cigar factory in Esteli, Nicaragua. It features an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, Nicaraguan Corojo 99 binder and Nicaraguan Habano Criollo filler - with the exception of the Ecuadorian wrapper, all of the tobacco comes from the Garcia's farms.

This cigar also features a very unique aromatic leaf that gives the cigar aromas and flavours; a special fermentation process was given to this particular type of type of tobacco in order for it to release all the aromas and flavours that the Garcia's were looking for to finish the last touch of this blend.

Don 'Pepin' Garcia 'Blue Label' has served as the inspiration for the creation and development of many other My Father lines. Hand made using 100% Nicaraguan tobaccos, this cigar features an extra-oily cinnamon coloured Corojo Oscuro wrapper and has an average rating of 93 points in Cigar Aficionado magazine.
