Oliva Connecticut Reserve Rubosto

My first note so here goes nothing:

I start with the Oliva Connecticut Reserve Rubosto 5x50 from Oliva Cigars hand made in Nicaragua.  These are some of my favorite cigars.

The appearance was light and the cigar was well constructed with some greenish blemish as to be expectesd with connecticut wrapped cigars.  Upon light you get the intitial hit of Nicaragua that quickly retires to a cool buttery flavor transparent even through the coffee making it enjoyable in the early morning. After about a half inch I begin to taste cinnamon which combined with the butter makes for a delightful taste.  Although it begins on the light to medium strength it has a very clean finish that continues to build.  At the halfway point it is into a full medium strength and the buttery flavor gives way to earthiness and a clean tobacco flavor.  Some spices build on the back of the tounge and it continues to finish clean.  I love this cigar if I am smoking it in the morning because of the way it evolves; starting off like cinnamon toast and fininshing by gently making sure that you are awake, slowly ramping up in strength.  It is a great example of what a cigar should be because after it is gone the flavors easily wash away allowing you to go on with your day.
