I definitely fell in love with the smoothness. The smoke is so creamy it's unreal. Still trying to score a box of the 460s locally but I am running into a little bit of NUb discrimination. "Can't we all just get along?" I guess the internet is my only friend.

NUB Conn is what I smoked at the Cigarfest in PA last month. Very smooth and good flavor profile. Yummm

I've overdrawn my spouse-imposed cigar budget for June but I plan on getting a box of 460 Connies on July 1.

My first Connecticut was the 460 and it is indeed good, but to my palate the 354 Connecticut has it beat.
I thought the explanation about one flavor of each cigar would have its own special size made specifically to enhance its flavor was marketing BS, but I guess it wasn't. I honestly did not expect the 354 to be any different than the 460 but to my palate there was a difference and the difference was a slightly smoother smoke with just a bit more flavor. Down side is that it smokes faster, 38 minutes instead of 58, but with a bit of coaxing I can get a 45 minute smoke out of the 354.
If you like the 460, give the 354 a try and see if there is any difference to you. I do not have an educated palate so I may be just tricking myself into thinking there is a difference. Anything is possible.

Thanks! I've been doing the 460s. Now I'll have to try the 354s too! :)

Just curious, who are you getting them from and why? Thanks looking for a box also and just curious as to where and why. Thanks

They're extemely hard to find online (most are backordered). All of the retailers in my area listed on the NUB site don't carry Connecticuts of any size (they claim none of their "regulars" will smoke them). Cigars International is always good but try bestpricecigars.com. They are very competitive especially on NUbs.
