The My Father Connecticut features an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, Nicaragua Corojo 99 binder and Nicaragua Habano-Criollo filler, with all tobacco coming from the Garcia's farms except the wrapper which comes from Ecuador. This blend represents the company's first foray into the Connecticut shade market, fulfilling years of customer requests for a milder offering in their portfolio. The cigar also features a very unique aromatic leaf that has been given a special fermentation process to release specific aromas and flavors that the Garcias sought to finish the blend. My Father Connecticut received a well-deserved 90-rating from Cigar Aficionado, noting: "A well-made cigar with a three-seam cap and medium claro wrapper. The easy draw delivers a floral and balanced smoke with hints of chocolate and baking spices." Despite being categorized as mild to medium-bodied, this cigar is described as "absolutely a mild cigar but definitely full-flavored," representing a departure from the Garcia family's typical medium to full-bodied blends while maintaining their signature complexity and quality craftsmanship.
