Review Notes: CAO cigars are different from others---it's hard to describe them. Sort of woody and spicy. Strong but not overpowering. Definitely not mild. I love the Brazilian wrapper. Certainly something different from the norm. I think if like stronger smokes like Punch, then try it. Burned a long time but it kept going out on me. Could be some construction problems, but it could have been the outdoor conditions (rain, 40 MPH winds).

Review Notes: This cigar was wrapped so tight i thought it was going to pop up like a firecracker when i lit it. The stick is beautiful to look at but there agian like others have said the draw was rough. The draw I did get was a nice medium to full body cigar with some spicy taste to it. The price i think is on par with other CAO cigars.

Review Notes: I was excited to buy a tin these because I love the Samba. The problem with these cigars were that they were rolled so tight. I felt like I was trying to drink a Mcdonald's milk shake with a straw. I think I had one of my lungs collapse. The flavor was there but I couldn't get any draw. Maybe it was my tin because I haven't seen any reviewers with similar comments. Anyway, very dissappointed.

Review Notes: I bought a tin of these and was surprised. I thought the flavor of this smoke was outstanding considering its size. The cigar burned for an extemely long time for a cigar of its size. All I can say is I really enjoyed the taste and yes it does have a full body. The only complaint; the price! $10.00 for 5 cigars of this size is a little steep. But then again, CAO's tend to be pricey. Would recommend if you like smaller smokes on occassion.

Review Notes: These things are nasty. Maybe I am just not into a full flavor cigar. But, ah man, YUCK! Get me the Scope now!
