CAO Mx2 Mini-Review

[itsme_timd]

I received this stick in the Newbie PIF, thanks Ashmaster!

The Mx2 is 'maduro times two' with Maduro leaves for the binder and wrapper. I loved the size on this cigar, a nice Toro at 6 X 54.

Nice construction and a simple band make this a very eye-catching cigar. The wrapper was smooth with a slight oiliness. Pre-light draw was awesome, I could tell it was going to be a heavy hitter.

Delicious from the first puff, slightly sweet and rich with a mild spiciness. I'm sure I'm not doing this justice with my newbie palate!

I need to try a couple more of these to make sure, but if the next ones deliver the same experience this will go on my favorites list.

A lot of the CAOs I've had seem to have been shipped on the wet side. A little time in the humidor seems to make them smoke a lot better. Don't give up on CAO yet. They have some good cigars in the 6 - 8 dollar range.
