Sporting a similar recipe to the original Corojo-wrapped release, this rendition of The Edge is covered with a Connecticut-Shade wrapper, all golden brown and gleaming with oils. The blend is largely relieved of its predecessor’s intense strength and spiciness, replaced by a creamy character that remains very much complex and comprehensively nuanced throughout. This Edge Connecticut is perfect for seasoned aficionados and new enthusiasts alike.

⊗ Enjoy the gentler side of Edge cigars.
Many have fallen in love with Rocky’s original Edge, a full-throttle blend that combines an aggressive, full-bodied strength with perfectly balanced flavor. However, for most of us pedestrians this is not an everyday cigar. That’s why Edge Connecticut cigars were created.
Crafted for those seeking big-time flavor without the knockout punch, Edge Connecticut combines a robust blend of Honduran-grown ligero – the same tobaccos used for the original Edge cigar – inside a silky Connecticut shade wrapper that’s super smooth. This wrapper tames the beast inside, issuing a smoother, creamier blend but retaining the complex layers of flavor that made it so popular.
Good news! Rocky Patel The Edge Connecticut has earned a well-deserved 91-point rating, noting: “A sweet and spicy double corona with hints of citrus and a floral finish. The smoke is dense in texture and the cigar draws quite consistently.”
