CAO America

Great piece of video, thanks Doc-T for posting that. I got a freebie from my local B&M a couple weeks back, in my opnion, it's nothing special. I'm not a fan of Connecticut wrappers so having two of them on a cigar is obviously going to bias me. To be honest, this cigar tasted like a stale chocolate covered graham cracker it's entire length. Burn was great and construction was flawless, just tasted rather strange.
 
I enjoyed mine. I do agree that the flavors were more muted than I expected them to be, especially since the filler is purported to be 100% ligero. The flavors I did pick up were good though. Maybe they can benefit from more aging. For being so full-bodied, having the cigar a few hours after a light lunch did not affect me. I'll smoke more of these.
 
Have you guys seen many of these yet, I havent seen any in the shops I usually hit.
 
They're not here yet...if the price point is close to the Brazilia, i'll probably pick up a few...if more like the Vision or Soprano, probably not more than one or two.
 
I just picked one up at my local shop...I will let it set in the humi for a while.
 
i dont have these in my local shop. for those who do:

anyone up for a 3 OR 4 way split? maybe less maybe more.

i wanna try em but i dont have room for a box :(
 
I'd be interested in a split. I was just going to grab a handful of singles but I'd go in on a box split instead. A third or a fourth of a box would be ideal, keep me posted.

Let me give my shop a call later on, I will ask if he has a box in stock..I did not go into the "box humidor" just the singles. I will advise once I get an answer.
 
This month's catalog (ccom), page 32...last sentence.

:thumbsup:

Now that these have been out a while, what do y'all think?
I don't know. I'm still waiting for you to send me a sample. :shock: :D
 
Only had one so far but got two more in the humi. I really enjoyed my first one, so figure the next two should be no different.
