GTO Cigars Connecticut Churchill Gold 8/14/15


Appearance 
Wrapper is a little mottled. 2 prominent veins, mostly fine. Tight seams. Very low sheen.

Aroma 
Barnyard. Mostly hay but a subtle sweetness also.

Prelight Draw
Hay and cedar

1st
Initially the draw is a bit snug. At 1/2" in the burn is spot on. The ash is salt&pepper gray and strong. The cigar has creamy notes of cedar.

2nd
The 2nd/3rd has leather notes joining the creamy cedar notes. Partway in a spice note develops. Reminds me of paprika. Strength has been medium so far. 

Final/3rd
The final/3rd was pretty much the same as the 2nd. This cigar was an enjoyable creamy smoke with a little paprika spice. Definitely something to try as a 1st smoke of the day. 
Thanks again to Oscar @GTOCigars for the sticks for review.
