What is this product?
The My Father Le Bijou 1922 Connecticut Limited Edition Robusto is a 5¼ x 52 handmade premium cigar that reimagines the legendary Le Bijou 1922 line with a Connecticut-seed wrapper. Handcrafted at My Father Cigars S.A. in Estelí, Nicaragua, this limited release marks a departure from the original Le Bijou's signature Habano Oscuro wrapper while maintaining the García family's commitment to exceptional craftsmanship. The complete blend details remain undisclosed, though it's important to note that a Connecticut wrapper doesn't automatically mean a mild experience—especially when My Father's blending expertise is involved.
Production is strictly limited to 1,500 boxes of 20 cigars, with an expected release in November 2026. Originally introduced in 2009 as a tribute to José "Pepín" García's father, José García Alayón, the Le Bijou 1922 collection has earned its place among Nicaragua's most celebrated cigar lines.
Why this product?
This limited edition offers a rare opportunity to experience a different interpretation of one of the most respected names in Nicaraguan cigars. The original Le Bijou 1922 earned legendary status in the premium cigar world, and this Connecticut-wrapped expression represents the García family taking their celebrated blend in an intriguing new direction. With My Father's track record of complex, character-driven cigars, this isn't simply a "Connecticut" in the traditional sense—it's a Connecticut by My Father, which suggests layers of flavor and craft worth exploring.
The strictly limited production of 1,500 boxes makes this a collectible release for enthusiasts who appreciate both the Le Bijou legacy and the innovation that comes from one of Nicaragua's master blending families.
Who can buy this product?
This cigar is for adult premium cigar enthusiasts (21+) who appreciate the My Father brand and are curious about how a Connecticut wrapper might interact with the García family's blending philosophy. It's particularly appealing to collectors of limited releases and longtime Le Bijou fans looking to experience a new chapter in this celebrated line.

Storage and Handling
Ideal Humidity Range
Store your cigars between 65% and 70% relative humidity for optimal flavor, burn consistency, and structure. This range prevents cracking, swelling, and uneven combustion.
Temperature Matters
Keep cigars between 65°F and 70°F (18°C–21°C). Excess heat can damage oils and increase the risk of tobacco beetles, while cold environments can affect burn performance.
Stability Over Perfection
Consistency is more important than hitting an exact number. Sudden humidity swings can damage wrappers and affect draw. A stable environment protects your investment.
Recommended: 2-Way Humidity Control
For effortless maintenance, we recommend Boveda 2-Way Humidity Packs (65% or 69%) to maintain consistent humidity with no refilling, no monitoring stress, and no over-humidifying.
