Esteban Carreras – Connecticut
I picked up this cigar at Ed’s shop awhile back. It looked like it may be a decent milder cigar, which I’m always keeping an eye out for. For the sake of this review, I smoked this cigar with water, and offer you my thoughts. Wrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut – Aged 7 years Binder: Ecuadorian [...]
