Review Notes: My local tobacconist recommended this as he knew I enjoyed full bodied cigars. As with any CAO cigar, the appearance is gorgeous with a dark veiny wrapper. Construction is impeccable and it was easy to cut, easy to light, burned very even throughout, and delivered a beautiful light gray ash that was firm. Alas, the taste was anything but full to start, I would say even a bit bland. About half way through, the cigar got a tad better. The last two inches were delightfully full. But for the price, there are better cigars out there and a lot better CAOs out there. Pretty disappointing... something I have never even thought about a CAO before.
