CAO LX2 Review

Hey I just posted my review of the LX2 Belicoso yesterday on Humibase and I wanted to share it with you guys (I also bought a couple extra to try with some aging)

There were lots of visible thin veins all over this cigar. When I smelled the wrapper and the foot of the cigar I got hints of hazelnut and chocolate. After clipping the cap I took a pre-light draw, the pull was perfect, not difficult and not to loose, I also got a really nice flavor that I couldn’t pick out. So the cigar lit perfectly, and I started the smoke. This cigar is not the powerhouse I was expecting; in my opinion the CAO Brazil is stronger. There’s not much to review the cigar was good but nothing stood out. Great construction, good flavor but nothing popped out, I even tried retrohaling. 85 out of 100
