Description
J.C. Newman launched Brick House; a true Cuban seed cigar made with the finest Havana tobaccos. To honour his family and heritage, J.C. modeled the Brick House label after his childhood home – the only brick house in their small, Hungarian village. Locals and visitors would gather at the house nightly to eat, drink, smoke and enjoy each other’s company. But with the Great Depression came the end of the Brick House.
Over 80 years later, grandsons Eric and Bobby Newman relaunched Brick House using the most exquisite Nicaraguan tobaccos. Wrapped in a hearty Havana Subido leaf, every cigar features a rich blend of Nicaraguan tobaccos carefully hand-rolled by master artisans. Aged in the mountains of Nicaragua, every Brick House cigar is a melding of flawless construction, superb quality and master blend.
Brick House Connecticut is rolled with the same highly-acclaimed Brick House filler blend with a genuine Connecticut Shade wrapper and Connecticut Broadleaf binder. Fewer and fewer cigars are being made with genuine Connecticut wrapper because many cigar manufacturers have found it to be more profitable to take Connecticut seeds and plant them elsewhere, like Ecuador or Honduras. J.C. Newman takes the use of genuine Connecticut tobacco by using it both in the wrapper and binder. The result of this combination is a very spicy and peppery rich flavour- one not only unlike regular Brick House- but one unlike any other cigar on the market today. Using both Connecticut Shade wrapper and Connecticut Broadleaf Binder is what makes this new Brick House Connecticut such a truly unusual and unique cigar.
An overnight sensation, the Brick House brand has become one of the most talked about cigars on the internet and a best seller nationwide. Awards include the Best Bargain Cigar and a place in the Top 25 Cigars by Cigar Aficionado in addition to numerous blog and website awards. Robusto 5 x 54. Please note: these cigars are now shipping in plain packaging.

This is a rich and creamy Connecticut, I think the extremely creamy smoke is probably from the double Connecticut wrapper and binder. For the price this is my go to Connecticut smoke. Really nice subtle sweetness, pairs well with a Irish whiskey or a sweet Caribbean rum.
