Founders Franklin Connecticut Toro

Cigar Intel 

Handcrafted in the Dominican Republic, the Franklin Connecticut features an elegant Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper over a Dominican Olor binder and a carefully selected filler blend of Dominican Piloto Cubano Seco and Ligero with Pennsylvania Broadleaf Viso. This combination produces a smooth, consistent burn and layered flavors of cream, cedar, and mild spice. True to  Founders’ heritage-driven philosophy, the Franklin embodies the spirit of craftsmanship and the pursuit of balance, offering a mild cigar that’s both approachable and richly satisfying.

Tasting Notes

The first draws reveal creamy notes of vanilla, toasted bread, and light cedar. As the cigar warms, a gentle spice and nutty sweetness develop, leading to a smooth, buttery finish with hints of pepper and earth. Expect a clean draw, excellent construction, and mellow yet flavorful smoke throughout.
