Review Notes: I'm finishing off a full bodied sample pack from C.I. This was my go to out of AAA, Man O War, Diesel Unlimited, Serie R and the Brazilia. I agree that the wrapper was a bit thin but the burn was pretty even...easy draw...great amount of smoke too!! I liked it so much that a CAO sample pack is on the way!! My next fav was the AAA..but prefer the A more!

Review Notes: I'm a newbie but I love the darker richer smokes. This one really hit the spot, love the big aroma and taste. It did go out once half way thru, and required a couple touch up, but that may have been me. Other than that, I couldn't put it down.

Review Notes: My first experience with CAO, and I'll be back for more. Wonderful construction, perfect draw. Lots of chocolate and cream in the initial 1/3rd of the smoke. Plenty of nuts and wood throughout. Good rich flavor, a managable size if you don't have 90 minutes for a smoke, and a great value. I paid a bit of an inflated price because I bought it in Germany, but I liked this one enough to order a box from Famous or some such place. Easily the match of a comparable Cuban. Worth your time!

Review Notes: I've never met a CAO I did'nt like, and this cigar is no exeption. The wrapper is thin and delicate but does not crack or split, the const. is first rate with no touch-ups needed. This is a classic Maduro experiance, coffee and a semi-sweet chocolate flavor. With a little spice thrown in this is a great cigar, a true classic. For around $4.00 a cigar this is a very good deal. I grab these in 5-packs on sale for around $3.00 apiece when I can. If you like a good Maduro give this cigar a try, this is how it's done right.

Review Notes: This cigar is a powerhouse. Has a nice spicy salty taste to the wrapper. Very full bodied with lots of pepper but not overpowering. Wrapper is a little on the thin side though which was the only downfall.
