The Connossieur No.2 was introduced in 2020, but only this year has it reached the market, unlike the Connossieur No. 1, which has been in production since before the Cuban Revolution. All the cigars of the “Connossieur” line are sold in a 25-count Slide Lid Box.
It develops an exceptionally creamy smoke. Intense notes of wood and hazelnut are enriched with nuances of leather and roasted coffee. A subtle and persistent spiciness also appears, where cinnamon stands out.

HOW ARE THE AWARDS MADE?
Those who scored the highest among the cigars tested during the year in blind tastings and reviews get re-selected. These products were then tested once again in a new blind tasting, which means not knowing what they are during the tasting. The test results are then compared, and the TOP 5 are created.
Since 2015, CigarsLover Magazine has focused on terroirs in order to give the right space to all the producing countries. From 2018, the TOP 5 were paired with the TOP 50, which lists the 50 best cigars without distinction of origin. Together with the Best Brands, the Best Buy, and the best Boutique Brands, this list will be published in CigarsLover Magazine Winter 2021 issue.
