The 90-rated HVC Hot Cake made a huge splash when it first debuted and it’s easy to see why. The hearty maduro hits all the right spots. But on tap here, we’ve got an HVC cigar that goes in the opposite direction. HVC’s Hot Cake Golden Line Connecticut is a smooth, crisp Ecuadorian Connecticut-wrapped beauty. Loaded with Nicaraguan tobaccos from Jalapa and Esteli, the Hot Cake Golden Line delivers flavorful notes of cedar, leather and cocoa on the finish. This mild to medium-bodied beauty is the perfect morning cigar and pairs beautifully with a nice cup of coffee.
