CAO America

CAO America Potomac




5 x 56 ring





Wrapper: Double Connecticut wrapper





Binder: Brazilian





Filler: Nicaragua





Info: This stick sports a cool looking double wrapper that has a stripe running down the stick. It also has some American filler which makes the cigar true to its name, with its beautiful red, white and blue band.



Appearance: It has a cool looking pin striped wrapper. It looks to be a well constructed cigar that is nice and firm. It is a double banded cigar with one at the foot of the stick. It has a patriotic red, white and blue band.



The Smoke: I pull out my double guillotine cutter and my new Rocky Patel blow torch. Initial reaction NICE a nice flavored medium smoke. The stick has a nice smooth draw with some suttle flavors. Nothing over powering about this stick. I made some correction throughout the smoke. It took just over an hour to smoke.



Review: I nice medium smoke but did not find it to be full body like CAO suggested. All in all I liked the cigar and will pick up some more of these sticks. CAO Brazillia is one of my favorite sticks and this one was not as good. Do not get me wrong I liked this smoke and would suggest my friends to try it. I fact I bought a couple of these months ago and when my friends came over and had a smoke they would always pick this one for the way it looked.



Rating: 9.1



Price: $6.50 to $7.75
