CAO has a dizzying array of cigars using tobaccos from many countries to create one of the broadest ranges of flavors and strengths. From the smooth CAO Gold, through their cigars based on countries that contribute leaf (CAO Brazilia, CAO America, CAO Nicaragua, CAO Italia), to the bold CAO Flathead, there are tons of options for the adventurous cigar fan.
For those who prefer some sweetness, look to Flavours by CAO, including CAO Moontrance, CAO Bella Vanilla, CAO Eileen's Dream, CAO Cherrybomb, and CAO Gold Honey.
I always thought CAO Italia was underrated and overlooked. A really delicious blend that, despite its 91 rating, always seemed to get overshadowed by its big brother Brazilia. Italia is made with a gorgeous and lusciously dark Habano Maduro wrapper leaf, and includes tobaccos from the Benevento region of Italy which add a zesty kick and some character to this complex blend. With a backbone of really nice, natural sweetness and hints of cinammon, pepper and toast, this four-country blend is earthy and rich, remaining medium in body from head to foot.
