CAO Cx2 Toro
Wrapper: Cameroon
Binder: Cameroon
Filler: Nicaraguan and Columbian
Storage: 70-72%RH at 75-80f
Construction: Solid construction. This cigar is perfect from foot to head. Clean
punch with no effort.
Pre-light: Very spicy with a woody touch to the nose. Tell tale signs of a
smooth smoke
Burn: Even burn from start to finish
Draw: Perfect, just a touch tight. Just how I like it
Drink: Water
Smoking Notes: Wonderful notes of spice with a full bodied smoke. It picked up
some woody and earthy hints towards the middle and only grew in complexity as
the smoke went on. Ending in a smooth spicy tasting smoke with a touch of
sweetness
Overall Impression: This cigar is everything I had anticipated. Well
constructed, Easy to light, smooth but full bodied. The cigar had a very rich
but not over powering flavor. It hits you with hints of sweet spice and wood and
earth. Yet, not even a touch of harshness. CAO has done it again and constructed
another excellent blend for its new line of cigars. I will be buying a box of
these quite soon to keep in my humidor. This was a taste so good, I had to buy
more. I have smoked 3 more since the Cigar tasting last thursday.
