    From a manufacturing standpoint, I think having a super strong filler with a CT wrapper would be a waste. The blend would over power the mild wrapper, muting one of the most expensive wrappers (if using true CT shade, not Ecuador CT).

    I was going to suggest the same - or even just double-wrap. Get Conn you like, take off the wrapper, and slap it on top of a Cain or something. Frankengars are great!

    @Brimy , DO try this Sucker Punch. I got pretty slammed after laying it down, might be a delayed-release bomber lol. @Lynn , what I'm looking for is strength/ body hidden under a CT wrapper

    While still pretty uncommon, there are some solid examples of this out there. A couple that come to mind: La Gloria Cubana Artesanos Retro Especiale Cubano & Perdomo Habano Churchill Connecticut.

    If you are looking for a more stout shade wrapped cigar, try the RomaCraft Intemeperence EC. It's Ecuadorian shade but still a shade wrapped smoke. None of the weakness of the CT shade stuff
    Nice try MF'r!

    I have three or four of these resting in my humidor. They're supposed to be medium-full, which is rare for a Connecticut-wrapped cigar.

    I wouldn't say medium full but I would say a full medium, maybe medium +
