Review Notes:
I've had a good amount of these and I don't think I've ever written a review of one, or if I have, it's been awhile. I like box pressed stogies, especially if they aren't perfectly sqaure and soft. It cut well and the pre-draw was really good. The camaroon wrapper is decent looking, I never really cared for the color of it though. This peticular CAO had a nice creamy taste with a hint of nuttiness and that famous CAO taste that the entire line seems to embody. The flavor was light to medium and everytime I smoke one, I can never quite remember what the flavor exactly was, it's kind of hard to put my finger on. All I can remember is that its good, but not great. This, of course, prevents me from having one often. On the other hand, it also prevents me from never having one again. Recommended if found under $5

Review Notes:
This was my first CAO. I bought it after reading June's CA and it received a good rating. The stick has a 55 ring gauge so I was expecting a good amount of flavor even for a Cameroon. However, someone stole the flavor out of this thing. I usually like a little resistance from the draw but this Toro didn't put up a fight. It felt like sucking air through a small pvc pipe. The burn on the first and second cigars were really uneven. The cigar looks better than it tastes

Review Notes:
The problem I have with CAO is there are to damn many of them that taste the same and are a bit over priced. That said I like this cigar, even though it really doesn’t have that much more to offer, aside from shape, than many other similar cigars on the market. The flavor which was medium to mild, is very mellow, construction, appearance and smoke output were good. Towards the end I thought the stick lost its character/complexity but, at least for the day, my smoking experience was satisfied. I would wager that the majority of us who smoke CAO wouldn’t be able to distinguish half the CAO’s from the other half of the CAO’s. Still I will continue to buy them…but ask for a discount!

Review Notes:
First of all this cigar is interesting looking. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a square stick before. Besides the odd shape(which is in no way a negative aspect) the cigar looked wonderful. Upon lighting it I was astonished. The taste was unbelievable, and I was tempted to say it was the best cigar I had ever smoked. Almost a surplus of good creamy smoke. I just couldn't get over it. Then I reached the middle of the cigar, and the taste went bad on me. I don't know how to describe it exactly, but it was awful. I will assume it just needs some time in the humidor(I have one in there waiting right now), and I will give this one another shot.
