Episode 25 Connecticut Cigars Deep Dive
Description
🔥 Episode – Connecticut Deep Dive (Between 2 Burns) 🔥
This week on Between 2 Burns, Jason and Ethan slow it down and light it up with a full deep dive into Connecticut cigars—one of the most misunderstood (and underrated) wrappers in the game.
We’re breaking down everything we’ve been talking about lately—from our newsletter to the pod—covering:
 💨 The history of Connecticut Shade and how it became the gold standard for smooth cigars
đź’¨ The difference between Shade vs Broadleaf vs Ecuadorian Connecticut
💨 Why Connecticut cigars aren’t just “mild” anymore (and haven’t been for a while)
đź’¨ How modern blenders are pushing Connecticut into flavor-forward, complex territory
đź’¨ Our personal picks and go-to Connecticut smokes right now
This episode isn’t just for beginners—it’s for anyone who thinks they already know Connecticut cigars… and might be wrong. Expect some myth-busting, some strong opinions, and a few cigars you’ll probably want to try immediately after listening.
💨 Smooth doesn’t mean boring.
 💨 Light doesn’t mean simple.
Light one up and come learn something—Between 2 Burns.
