Are they the same blend? I thought Davidoff changed it a bit after they bought Camacho. I could be mistaken but I do taste the difference between the 2. I loved the original triples and would go deep on those, but I got a fiver of the new ones and even after 6 months or so of rest I couldn't stomach getting past half way. But hey like what you smoke and smoke what you like.

I have seen it noted that it's the same and also that it's a re-blend. Everyone seems to have a differing opinion. But according to the director of marketing for Camacho the Connecticut and the Triple are the only 2 that were NOT re-blended

Thanks! Maybe I should have let the new triple rest longer. I chalked it up to the blend because it wasn't harsh or anything, just tasted funny

Keep in mind that while it may not have been "reblended", they're using different crops than they were a few years ago when the labels changed. So it's not the same cigar as it once was, even if the "blend" didn't change. Personally, I liked these several years ago, I do not now. Part of that is the change in my own palate, but I do not think they are as good as they used to be either.
@Hardheaded
if your B&M has old-label ones, definitely pick some up. A few years of downtime may have smoothed the profile a bit, but probably still well worth the purchase if you like the profile.
