Nov 11th 2011 - Room 101 Connecticut

Today's cigar is the Room 101 Connecticut Robusto in a 5x50 vitola. The Room 101 Connecticut is another of the 2011 releases for Room 101. With a Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, a Corojo binder and fillers from the Dominican and Honduras this isn't your average Connecticut. To quote the man behind it all "It's a Connecticut with a kick". With flavors of pepper, earth and a creamy sweetness that brings you the best of Connecticut wrappers without slacking on the flavor and body. I chose this to be today's cigar to stick with the same theme as yesterday. Today is Veterans Day. Matt Booth, the man behind Room 101, is a Veteran of the Marine Corps. I saw no better stick to celebrate today with than one made by a Veteran. Take a moment out of your day today to thank a veteran and any active or reserve service member for their service. If it wasn't for the sacrifices of them America wouldn't be what it is today. Also take a min to show your thanks for those who aren't here to celebrate Veterans Day with us, the ones who have passed on and the ones who paid the ultimate sacrifice. Happy Veterans Day to all the veterans and service members out there! Thank you for your service!
