FIRECRACKER CONNECTICUT
Black Pepper, Hickory Wood
Burnt White Toast, Orange Rind
The Story Behind the Brand
Small in size, but massive in impact—the Firecracker is a cigar that redefines boldness in every draw. Launched in 2006 by United Cigars, it was designed to be a playful yet powerful tribute to those who crave intensity in a compact form.
Its signature detail? A fuse-shaped cap that gives the cigar its unmistakable firecracker appearance, adding a touch of fun to every smoking experience.
But don’t let its playful look fool you—this cigar is a serious contender. Handcrafted in the Dominican Republic, the Firecracker comes in three explosive varieties.
If you take a closer look at the band, you’ll spot a small red anchor—a subtle nod to Red Anchor, the world’s oldest cigar brand, founded in 1772 in Delft, Holland.
The Experience
The United Firecracker Connecticut is proof that a Connecticut-wrapped cigar can still pack a punch. From the first draw, the closed-foot design delivers an immediate burst of black pepper and hickory wood, setting the stage for a full-flavored yet smooth experience.
As the smoke develops, the Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper balances its signature creaminess with a bold edge, while the Dominican Criollo binder adds warmth and structure. The Dominican ligero fillers bring layers of burnt white toast and a zesty orange rind, offering a complex contrast of richness and brightness.
Finishing with a lingering woody spice and subtle citrus sweetness, this Connecticut defies expectations—smooth yet intense, refined yet robust.
