Well as most of you know I am a big fan of Maduro cigars but I have to say that the Connecticut Broadleaf is creeping up on the possition of no.1 for my list of favorite wrappers. After having the 7th reserva which I thought was outstanding (Only wish it were a toro size), I want to know what other great cigars are out there with this broadleaf wrapper. I know I've had more than a few but can't remeber them all. So can you help a brother out and give me some examples of your favorite Connecticut Broadleaf sticks.
Thanks everyone!!

Connie wrappers I like are: Don Benigno, Monte White label, NUb, Diamond Crown and Ashton. There's others but these are what I like this morning...

Funny how the blend can make the taste different even with the CB wrapper. These all have a unique taste to them for sure.

I've heard there are signs of blue mold on some of this years crop. Wonder how that will effect pricing.

I have a shop near me that rolls their own. they do a good business and I like their sticks particularly the maduros. Recently they had a batch of conn "dark leaf". I am burning one now. Not bad, more body and strength then the usual conn. I'm wondering if it is a legitimate classification?

I'm also becoming a HUGE fan of PA Broadleaf (BL wrappers grown in PA soil instead of CT, a bit spicier and bolder, and uglier, lol).

What kind of wrapper is on the PAMs?
