Description
The HVC Hot Cake line is known for releasing bold cigars. Their Golden Line Connecticut takes things on the milder side with an overall smooth, creamy profile and some touches of spice. Its smooth Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper sheaths a binder and filler made of premium Nicaraguan tobacco. This is the first time the Hot Cake line has released a Connecticut Shade cigar. The cigars are handmade in Nicaragua at HVC’s factory in Esteli.

The HVC Hot Cake Golden Line Connecticut Corona Gorda is what I will be reviewing today. This cigar sports a beautiful Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper along with Nicaraguan Binder and fillers from Jalapa and Esteli. The cigar is everything I expected: super creamy and a bit stronger than I anticipated, which is a huge plus as I tend to like more medium- or full-bodied cigars. Notes of cedar, leather, cocoa, and small bits of pepper are the strong points of this cigar. I felt tiny amounts of what seemed like lemon, caramel, and cumin, which was very impressive, as I didn't expect this much flavor from this cigar. Draw was perfect with no adjustments needed at all; burn was not as pleasant, however, and I needed to relight a couple times. This cigar is lovely with a morning coffee and absolutely wonderful for any mild or medium cigar lover.
