Not the one grown in Ecuador, the one grown right here in the good old USA.

Do you have a favorite cigar wrapped in Connecticut Shade?

boy howdy, do i ever. when they're good (i.e., not so delicate that they tear or come undone), they're my favorite. i just had a diamond crown (thanks buddha!) that blows away anything else i've ever had, but that's kind of like the grand poobah of CTSH wrappers. 🙂

other smokes with CTSH wrappers that i copiously salivate over include natties by suarez, ashton and fonseca.

there are some decent midrange natural wrapper smokes among the CTSH-wrapped, too -- sinatra and helix come to mind.

I'm still rather new to this wrapper, but my hands down favorite so far is the Hoyo Excalibur.

Two others I really like are the Perdomo Exclusivo and the Indian Tabac Limited Reserve (although this one is an Ecuadorian wrapper).

I smoked a lamp shade once, does that count?

It may be an Ecuador grown, but I think the best looking on I ever saw was on a Torano Reserva Selecta. 2nd best was probably on a La Gianna Havana (newer blend).

BMW,

Do a review on the lamp shade.
