The 6.5 x 52 Connecticut Reserve Torpedo — a tapered, mellow Ecuadorian Connecticut cigar from Oliva, smooth and creamy with an easy mild-medium body.
Flavor profile
Creamy · Earthy · Roast
The Connecticut Reserve Torpedo brings a tapered head to Oliva's mellow Connecticut line. At 6.5 by 52 with a pointed tip, it gives this easygoing blend a slightly more focused draw while keeping all of its smooth, creamy character.
What it tastes like
A silky Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper covers Nicaraguan binder and filler. The mild-to-medium profile is gentle and balanced: cream and almond, cedar and oak, and a light coffee note on a smooth finish. The torpedo tip concentrates the smoke and lets you fine-tune the draw to taste.
Who it's for
This is an approachable everyday cigar — easy enough for beginners, with a tapered format that experienced smokers enjoy. If cutting a torpedo is new to you, how to cut a cigar walks you through it, and the cigar strength guide places the mild body.
Track it in your humidor with the Casa DNC app. For the classic straight-sided version of this blend, see the Connecticut Reserve Robusto.
