CAO Brazilia Piranha

I noticed that this ciigar has a almost purple color when seen at the right angle, is this charateristic for the Brazilian Maduros?

That's why they call it "Piranha". The Ozgener family is from the tropical rainforest region in Brazil where there are abundant piranha. In the water, a piranha will display a purplish glow when the sun's light is reflected at a certain angle. They have also been called the "purple destroyer" in Brazil. The wrapper on this cigar has been treated with a mineral substance that has a purple hue when viewed in a particular light. I also have some ocean front property for sale in Kansas if anyone is interested. Hey, I'm at work and needed to have a little fun.

Have a great day all!

Sam
