I gave the original brickhouse a 5 star rating. The connecticut version I had even higher hopes, unfortunately it wasn’t the as good. It is much more spicier than the original version, and also packs a whole lot more nicotine (to me at least). I’m not sure whether it’s because the cigars are too fresh? Heres hoping some aging might tame it down.
