Smoke This Trust Me Connecticut Gordo (6 x 60) Cigar

Smoke This Trust Me is a value-focused brand from Pospiech Inc., the Florida company behind Powstanie, launched by brothers Gregg and Mike Szczepankiewicz at the 2026 PCA Convention & Trade Show. The concept grew out of their own retail shop, Cigar Hustler in Deltona, Fla., which had spent more than a decade selling house bundle cigars on a simple "buy three, get one free" promotion. The brand carries that same offer to retailers nationwide, with all nine cigars — three wrappers in three vitolas — sharing a single $8 MSRP.

The Connecticut Gordo is a handmade long-filler cigar produced in Nicaragua and finished in the line's Connecticut wrapper, one of three wrapper choices offered across the range. Pospiech has kept the rest of the recipe close to the vest, declining to disclose the binder and filler tobaccos or the factory behind the blend. It is packaged in 20-count bundles rather than boxes, in keeping with the brand's value-driven positioning.

Smooth, creamy and easygoing, the Connecticut Gordo shows notes of cedar and toasted nuts with a subtle sweetness and just a hint of spice. The wide 6 x 60 format keeps the smoke cool and slow-burning from light to finish.

A relaxed, unhurried smoke — good for any time of the day.
