#6: CAO MX2 and Diesel

Excellent set of sticks. I loved them and waiting to get another. Good body for both 5 packs, and an overall excellent value on the sampler itself. Thanks a lot for selling them!

There a great selection, very happy!

Loved Diesels (5star). As for their pairing with CAO MX-2’s——— not at all crazy about Mz-2’s. Very marginal, unlike most CAO’s I love

Good smokes

Great cigars

Wonderful value.

Two great selections. Amazing price. I will most likely be reordering this sample.

Great cigars. One of my go to samplers!!

Diesel long time favorite. Little disappointed in MX2. Flavor ok, if not inconsistent. Construction not good as used to was.

Perfect combo!

Both are great.. but I haven't decided which I prefer..? Exactly what I like.. Both are on the strong side., but still have nice flavor !

Great prices, very quick delivery and huge selection.

smooth taste, burns well, highly recommend.

Always loved the MX2’s and diesels are very tasty treats!

Two of my favorites. Great, full-body smokes.

always good

This was first introduction to CAO. I have enjoyed them though they are a little harsh. Great construction though and a nice even burn. I bought the mix to get one of my favorites, Diesel, at a discounted price while trying something new. If you haven’t tried Diesel, you must! I’m no aficionado, but I personally put them on par with the Oliva V on quality, construction, taste. I would also argue that they are as smooth as a Cohiba.

Not a bad cigar. Maybe a little bitter for my taste. But still not bad.

My pack of diesel and C AO were a great flavor and value. Thanks

Great combination. I bought the duo for the diesel (one of my favorite cigars) but the now that I’ve smoked the CAO MX2, it’s also going on my favorites list as a great full body, consistent burn and flavor.

This is a very good sampler And at a good price.

very good

Both were presents for an employee. His reaction was a huge grin and telling me how he relaxed with a glass of bourbon and a good cigar. I’m happy because you made them affordable

an absolute excellent pair of top notch smokes at a fabulous price

I enjoyed these cigars

What great partners, as far as high-quality & consistency is concerned. CAO MX2 is a solid, robust, but not over the top smoke. The Diesels are definitely becoming a favorite of mine and always one to keep onhand. These are slightly shorter smokes, so great when time is a factor. Nice kick and plenty of flavor from both of these. Some of the nicest ash you'll find, says a lot about the quality and craftsmanship. No wonder the paired these together, it was a no brainier and a great deal.

THEY WERE AWESOME

CAO is my favorite cigar

Great cigars, love the taste and the mx2's are a good cigar to enjoy with friends

Both cigars great smoke tons of flavor, very aromatic. Highly recommend. Can't go wrong with this combination.

Both sticks are delicious. Great burn and well constructed. This is a combination that I would definitely buy again

Excellent combination for the price premium cigars.

Good quality

Good

Robusto mix of cigars from two powerhouses of taste. Perfect to go with a black cup of coffee or a whiskey on the rocks. Great for the experienced cigar smoker who wants bold taste.

Great combo for Maduro lover

2 great smokes! And a great deal!

They are very good together. I will be ordering more very soon.

Lot's of flavor & body. Great smokes by the fire pit.

great smoke

Nice and not to strong

Nice combo

Smooth...👀👌🏾

Good for a daily smoking

I bought this duo because I like the MX 2 But I was even more surprised how great those diesel unholy’s are. both great smokes good draw and burn even. The diesel unholy’s I make them a permanent cigar in my humidor.

The best of times

Great taste

Good mix and favor.

great smokes at a great price.

The CAO one reminds me of a Ramon Beuso which is a pleasant surprise. You won’t want to put it out. Diesel is also another delicious cigar. Both flavorful. I didn’t detect much spice which is good for me, just full flavor.

Can't go wrong

absolutely loved the rich and complex flavors in the mx2. The diesels are good and well made with a good burn and solid construction however I would not call them an amazing stick.

Great at everything. Excellent taste, burn well and smoke long. Can't ask for much more.

If I cant get the CAO Brazil, these is my go too cigars

i enjoy them in the evening with 3 finger of jim beam

Was looking for a CAO sampler but had not had the Diesel before. If you like the MX2 you will definitely enjoy the Diesel.

Great deal

Good smoke fair price

love them both. hadn't had a cao in a while and it still is a great made and smooth tasting cigar.

Good mix of robust cigars for the experienced smoker.

Love them

Great, robust cigars and a great deal

Both of these are great tasting smokes. With a pretty even burn. My only complaint is one of the diesels was rolled super tight to where I couldn’t get a drag. Other than that no complaints. 8 out of 10 would smoke again.

Love them

Like my CAOs.... Still haven't tried the Diseel yet...

This is perfect combination with 2 awesome sticks here. The Unholy Cocktail is one of my favs I have been smoking for years but this is my first time smoking the MX2. I have loved the CAO GOL for years as well but the MX2 is one of my new favorites for sure. Super tasty great flavored cigar and if you have not tried one I highly recommend it.

I like these.

Good full flavored and easy draw. No harshness and generally even burn.

I recently purchased the CAO MX2 and Diesel sampler. Bought it for the Diesel and ended up liking the CAO even more. I'll be buying more in the future. IMO you can't go wrong with either.

Both are a nice smoke will be purchasing them both again

A winner. I love many of the cigars appearing in the "Gentlemans Deuce" genre, but my faves are usually usually joined up with a cigar I find so-so. Not so with this pairing. The MX2 is my favorite CAO (and I'm a CAO fan), and the Diesel Unholy Cocktail is a very, very fine cigar; I've given 'em both five stars, look it up! This combo is a tremendous value.

2 great cigars. One with coffee in the morning, one with Bourbon in the evening.

Staff @ CI always a pleasure.

Both are good quality cigars . The MX2 is bolder in flavor .And the diesel is a smoother smoke . Both will be repeat buys

I gave four out of five stars. The CAO was very flavorful but the Diesel was a little let down. I was hoping for that chocolate coffee combination and it wasn’t there. But the combo is still worth the money.

If u love full bodied, u will love this deal!

Two good full body smokes Great combo!

Imo I liked the diesel better but I can’t stand torpedos. They always feel like they’re gonna slide out of my mouth. Both great in their own aspects. Wish the price was less

Diesel is always superb !

Excellent

I enjoy both of these cigars! Good smokes at good price!!

These two are a great match. Fuller body for both, but I always enjoy that pepper bite from Diesel. Bottom-line this is a great value. Thumbs up.

I enjoyed both cigars.

CAO MX2 is by far my favorite smoke. Smooth, flavorful, slow smoke. The Diesel is more robust, also a very slow smoke. Both worth having in one's humidor.

Enjoyed them pretty well. I tended to reach for the CAO most of the time, however both were similar. I like strong cigars and they are that. Im still new to cigars and still searching for my favorite.

Generally a good full bodied cigar for reasonable price. We find a few of each box to be tight rolled and thus a tight draw with less than full 'smoke'. Our 'best of best' is Padron 1926, but for legitimate comparison, our other repeat buys include LaGoria Series R, CAO Flatheads, MX2 and Italia. They also have occasional tight rolls.

Their good enough

great full flavored cigars.

This is the chance to smoke a couple of great tasting cigars! This was a good combo, for a really great price.

Full body both. Excellent. I repeated the order 3 times after.

Giving it 4 stars for the following reasons: I am a little disappointed by the Diesel, nothing bad but nothing special... deserves 3 stars. But the CAO Mx2 is much better smoke for me. It saves the day for this combo as it deserves something like 4 1/2 stars.

These deserve 5 stars. I have to knock one star off because when I try to smoke fast enough to satisfy my enjoyment cravings, the smoke gets hot and the taste suffers. If you can just let them burn between draws then you'll have a truly wonderful experience.

Love these oily, even-burning, med to full bodied smokes. Consistent in their production with a fair price point. I'm a maduro man so much enjoyed!

This is the second time I've ordered this combo. Not the last either

Excellent combination! Highly recommended, excellent quality!

Both start out very good and even smoke. However you don't get barely past half way and get a chemical taste, unfortunately you can't loose that taste either. So you really end up only smoking a half a cigar. Have notices this on the 2 from each 5 pack I have tried so far.

Really like the Diesel. CAO just okay. Good cigars for what you pay

Both of these where amazing. They where well kept and you could tell all the way through.

Great selection. Prefer the MX2 verses the Diesel but all are still great.

Two excellent brands paired together! Dynamic duo!

The CAO MX2’s were a fantastic treat, as expected after reading other reviews. Was pleased with the Diesels as well. Great sampler, would purchase again.

I found the Deisel cigars to be good quality with a full body and light draw. The Cao cigars were a little tight on the draw so not as enjoyable. I would stick with the deisal cigars, can’t go wrong.

Love it.

Full body. Burns well Taste improve as you smile them

Love love love this great deal and excellent cigars

I have not been a torpedo smoker before. I have enjoyed these cigars, and will purchase again.

These are both spicy to start and have a good draw. Smokey dark chocolate finish

Both cigars are great. They burned well and tasted great. They were shipped in a bag with a humi-care packet, which is the first time any of my orders have been shipped this way. It's definitely appreciated and I hope CI adopts this as standard practice

One of the best cigars for the money. Not very expensive but they sure do taste like they are

The CAO was strong yet flavorful. Good smoke output. Couple touch ups needed. Diesel was straight forward with good strength. Pretty even burn.

Great deal. Perfect for the golf course

Great smokes!

CAO MX2 and Diesel, two of my favorites. Great smokes.

these are good sticks.

Both are a lot of flavor and on the strong side on what I call a medium, good burn.

Mx2 and diesel unholy cocktail are 2 of the best full flavored cigars offered by cigars into, soon I won't be able to afford them !

Good price, good smoke

Good smoke for the price!

Decent medium smoke

Both the MX2 and the Diesel had been previously discovered by me, thanks to CI.. And they’re both favorites! Highly fortuitous that they’re paired together on Gentlemans Deuce! Both are rich, nicely put together, and tasty. IMHO you cannot go wrong with this combo.

My go to sampler. Never disappointed.

Great smoke !! enough said.

MXM2's came as expected: a great smoke. The Diesels we're a gamble as I was unfamiliar with them. They are a bit on the harsh side. I like full bodied smokes but the Diesels weren't as good as I'd hoped. Still not bad for the price, though.

The cao is one of my favorite, perfect rich taste, about an hour to smoke. The diesel I've never had but was very good as well.

Great stick will order more .

Both the diesel and cao cigars had great flavor. Nice slow whiskey sipping burners.

I like

Exceeded my expectations. Great price and great cigars.

Both are worth the money. Good taste, even burn, great cigars

A couple of my favorites bundle?? YUMMMMMM

I've grown to love CAO and Diesel brands..awesome smokes.

All great cigars

Always wanted to kick back and draw on a Diesel. It definitely reach my expectation. Even draw, long lasting, and pleasant distinct aroma. Look forward in purchasing more for the humidor.

I love this combo. MX2 I will certainty order again.

Always fresh and on time.

CAO’S best cigar.

Awesome!!

Too strong

Great smoke

I call them the get right twins smooth and delicious

Double winner all around with these two!!

More good stuff!

"CAO Extreme" everything I like and expect from a cigar

Great cigar. Good construction. Super taste

Both of these cigars are incredible. They have great taste! Great flavor! You can’t find a better priced cigar for this quality as well.

If you're interested in the full body taste without a full body price this is the way to go.

Accurate and quick shipment. Excellent sticks

CI gives the best service and I ALWAYS find exactly what I'm looking for! I send every stoagie lover I know to this site and they all say the same thing.."I wish I knew about this place sooner!"...

Still haven't received them. I know I'm in Iraq but my family has shipped packages after you guys that have beat them here

I love them.

2 hours and 15 mins.of pure pleasure ! Been smoking MX-2's for years. Up here in the desert it is very hard on a stick.One touch up on a toro. Did get a lot of sweetness in the first half. Did not try the Diesel yet

MX2 dark and delicious, smooth. Diesel complex and full flavored

The ca was good but the diesel is dry and very hard to smoke will never order again

This combo pack was my favorite so far. Both brands are solid and enjoyable, I’ll definitely be purchasing this again.

Have not received my cigars yet....😒

Two great Maduro wrapper smokes.

Amazing!!!!

CAO MX2 leave something to be desired, but what those lack the Diesel sticks more than make up for.

cao mx2 good smoke ocean city this yr 10 floor ocean view caomx2 smoke nice diesel short smoke nice

Mx2 is one of my favorites now. The diesel is well made and rich and a very strong cigar. Also a favorite. Must try

My go to duo.

Excellent long smoking full flavor

Seriously full flavor. I generally get overwhelmed and save half for later. Not so prone to have the CAO problem - too fine a wrapper, so those of us in a dry climate have flaking wrappers by the time it's down to the nub.

Great cigars.

The cigars are great. Good even burn. Very tasty!

Very good for the price and fast delivery.

MX2 one of my favs, the diesel are always good!

Every now and again I make a good decision, and this is one of them. Both the CAO MX2 and the Diesel are fantastic cigars, strong, flavorful, and plenty of smoke output. Pair these with a good, strong imperial stout and enjoy!

I have heard a lot about the Diesel Unholy Cocktail, & I can't wait to enjoy one but they are spending time in my humidor they seemed a little bit hard when they arrived. So I have not got a chance to try them yet, but I am looking forward to it. They smell divine. On the other hand the CAO MX2 is a very good smoke. They have burned well so far, nice puffy clouds of smoke they produce. I would definitely buy this Deuce again.

the selection and service at CI IS GREAT! I've ordered from them in the past and will no doubt to continue as a customer.

The MX2 was a wonderful surprise! Great stick and Diesel is ok.

I had the CAO yesterday and loved it. Diesels have always been my favorite.

I'm a big Maduro fan, so the Mx2 was a double hit for me . It could be my "go to " smoke from now on. The Diesel was quiet flavorful , but I had trouble with a couple of them staying lit.

I am a multiple-time purchaser of this bundle. The Diesel is a winner every time. I tend to like the Brazillia from CAO, but the MX2 is okay, especially when packaged together in a bundle at a great deal.

Great cigar.

Love this company and it's dedication to consistency and excellence. This is a solid pairing of smokes at a wonderful price. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Great cigars.

I'm a newbie with cigars but I prefer the stronger flavor and quality of these. Will be ordering again.

Great cigars

Very nice smoke

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS SAMPLER!

Excellent selection, price and quality. Enjoyment at an affordable price. Recommended.

I bought numerous duos for friends and family and everyone enjoyed them, especially the MX2s.

both of these cigars are in my top ten although the diesel unholy cocktail is by far my favorite. Been smoking them for years and NEVER had a bad cigar. If you like full body, balanced cigars try a diesel!

Excellent full bodied cigars with a hint of bitter sweetness that'll keep you in a refined state for at least a couple of hours.

I have enjoyed both the Diesel and CAO. They arrived right on time and were nice and ready to smoke.

as always I got the CAO and Diesel with my order. cant go wrong with either one. clean flavor and even burn every time.

CAO AND DIESEL > Can't Go Wrong here > enough said

The Diesels are fabulous, as usual. However, after trying two of the MX2s, I'm quite disappointed. They were very bitter, only made it halfway through both before crushing them in the ashtray with disgust. The last three will end up in the trash. I though CAO was a premium manufacturer - so I'm surprised at the inconsistency of this product, because I've had these before and enjoyed them. Could it be storage and handling?

Everything is in the title.

I had high expectations for the Diesel Unholy Cocktail. They were not met. The MX2 was wonderful as always.

I bought this to try the Diesel brand and was not disappointed. CAO is on my top five list, but I had not tried the MX2. The MX2 started with strong coffee then mellowed for most of the smoke. Reminded me of the Bahia vintage torpedo but not as complex. The Diesel I was expecting to be strong, but it turned out to be more medium bodied. The start was very spicy/peppery. It then settled to a smooth leathery finish. Solid combo pack if you enjoy a medium bordering on the full flavor smoke. Excellent price for 10 quality cigars.

The CAO Mx2 is one of those I don't think I'll like it but I'll try it anyways,turned out to be one of my top three in my rotation,have a humidor full of them.Great cigar!!!!

Love both brands!

I'm a big fan of anything AJ the diesel mx2 is an ok cigar. Decent package together, the diesel makes it grest

A great pair at a greater price

I have an affinity to CAO, and this is a one that I'll be adding to my list of cigars to buy more of.

Cigar International rocks. I'm a sampler guy, my palate loves flavor and these stooges provide that. Plus the prices are always in my wheelhouse.

The CAO MX2 is an excellent full flavored cigar with hints of coco, spice and earthy taste, I have smoked other mid to full CAO cigars and i have never been disappointed. What can i say about a Diesel cigar .......... always GREAT !

M2 are my favorite stogies, and the match up was hard to beat, only by the price. highly recomemded and will reorder myself if still available at months end

Diesel was stronger than expected but not a bad smoke. The CAO was amazing!

Just about everyone has favorites and these are some of mine. They satisfy from the first puff to the last.

A few were a little dry but other than that a great sampler

Big fan of diesel

CAO and Diesel cigars are two of my favorites.

An awesome duo of cigars from the Gentleman's Duece category. This was my favorite pair of cigars from the GD category and I'm sorry to say CI has dropped this pair from the selections. Hopefully they'll bring them back.....

I cant believe how fast the service was, from ordering online to receiving them. The cigars were delivered fresh and still are fresh as they sit in my humidor. Awesome!!

Great pairing. Both cigars are excellent, medium on smoke full on flavor. Diesel was a good tight wrap that held its ash well. CAO never disappoints. Medium draw. Set my diesel down in the tray,lit, sat a good ten minutes as I visited, picked it up figuring it would have went out and it wasn't. Highly recommend this combo.

Two of my favorites put together as a sampler! I will sample this again! And again and again and again...two very delicious cigars, very much worth it!

CI is the best place to find great cigars at good prices. I have been a huge CAO fan and when I saw this sampler I had to try it. MX2 is the beauty with smooth taste and draw. My first Diesel was eye opening in a good way, full of power and taste. I will buy this sampler again and recommend it to others

I enjoied my purchace

It was my first time smoking a CAO and I was not disappointed, the cigar was well constructed, nice even burn, flavors of coco and nuts. definite a mild to full smoke. The Diesel was milder than expected but also a very nice smoke with mild flavors, a good even burn and very well constructed. I would buy both again.

Great sampler at a great price. Thanks CI!

Excellent!!

Great sampler!

I've ordered this combo a couple times now, never disappointed. As long as I get a diesel, I'm always a happy smoker... As for the CAO MX2, good flavor, even burn. All around good smoke. Although one never seems to taste the same as the next to me, not sure what that is but I would totally recommend

Have been a fan of Diesel for a while. The MX2 is also a good smoke. Both are well worth it. Have already reordered.

Received my order in 5 business days

CAO and Diesels make a fantastic combo. Very dark, full flavor and easy to draw. I'll definitely get these again!

I have purchased cigars from local shops here in Wichita, KS and other on line sites. Not one beats the price, quality, and selection I get from Cigars International! Thank you!

I enjoyed my recent purchase. Prices were great too! Looking forward to ordering again. Unfortunately , I am still waiting for my new sale book to arrive in the mail ?

Easy to order. Quick shipment and cigars are on point

Cigars good.

I have purchased this sampler several times... great smokes! I find it to be a great value as well!!

Love how fast i receive my orders,love the selection and prices. I love the packaging job on the products

C I is the only place I've bought cigars from in the last 12 years. I have never had any kind of problem with a purchase.

Great service

Easy to use Website and great prices. I am very impressed with your fast shipping.

This is a good mix and great price. The MX2s are worth the price alone.

Both are great smokes. They are regulars for me.

taste good

Great deal and and on time delivery

Gr8 place to go to get all of your gear for cigars at very reasonable prices compare to other online shops.

CAO and Diesel never disappoint. A very smooth cigar.

The CAO and Diesel combo pack is definitely worth the purchase and at a great price. These are two high quality cigars that are a nice "go to" as a change from my everyday smokes.

These are two great full bodied, full flavored, full strength sticks worthy of the name.... "cigar"! The construction was flawless on both. There were extraordinarily dense and heavy. It makes me wonder how they can fit so much filler in them while maintaining a reliable draw? I really enjoyed both. I recommend enjoying them in cooler weather as I smoked one of the Unholy Cocktails on a VERY hot day. I was dripping sweat, and for lack of a better description, it made an Unholy Cocktail out of my stomach. Could have not let them rest long enough, could have been the heat, or could have been both. After letting them chill in the humidor for a few weeks they were much more enjoyable. Highly recommend!!!

These two cigars are in my top five for enjoyment. To have them both in a combo pack made it even much better!

Both brands are full of rich flavors. Great cigar for a bonfire!

Great combo! Very great smokes.
