CAO searched for five years for the tobacco to make this cigar. They think they've found the best, and we think you'll agree.

Right out of the gate, you'll notice that this cigar comes with a beautiful, dark, Brazilian wrapper. Hence the name on the band! Definitely an enjoyable smoke. Lots of flavour from start to finish. I have no previous experience with Brazilian cigars but this one definately opened up a whole new world for me. Very nice spicy notes with a strong woody flavour dominating this cigar. I enjoyed it, as I do with many darker cigars, with a strong espresso. The coffee brought out many little notes that may have been over-shadowed by the stronger tastes. Almost creamy, but with some earth and smoke tastes hidden beneath, the Brazilian CAO was full of surprises. A nice size cigar, definitely one to keep handy in the humidor.-Fumée featured reviewer Dave
