Review Notes:
Another CAO construction masterpiece. This cigar looks great, although it may leave you slightly wanting. Not disappointing, but like CAO is known for, not a complex smoke. Beautiful burn, slightly tight draw. The dark almost obsidian wrapper calls from your humi, to come to the dark side, it beckons to be smoked, a dark creature of the night. While looking slightly better than it tastes, it still releases deep, if not, powerful flavors of licorice, earth, and leathery goodness. I have smoked two and it will pair well with tawny port, water, diet coke, or perhaps a French rhone. Milder than it looks and it will not offend the onlookers, who will undoubtedly be mesmerized by the simplistic beauty of this CAO. Buy some, smoke it, and feel good about it. You are arriving as an aficionado...almost.
