Full and Spicy!

When one thinks of Italy, premium cigar tobacco is usually not the first thing that comes to mind. But for CAO, so accustomed to pushing the boundaries of flavor, this is where they discovered some of their best, and most unique, tobaccos. This particular tobaccos is grown in the Benevento region of Italy and offers an enjoyable sweetness backed ever so slightly by toasted earthiness. 

When combined with a luscious, dark Habano-seed wrapper leaf grown in Honduras, and a select blend of fine filler leave tobaccos from Nicaragua and Peru, you’ll find an intricate 4-country blend that’s incredibly rich, robust, and complex. Italia is full-flavored, with sweetness and a long, bold finish. 

CAO Italia has received a 92-rating, noting: “creamy… lush with fruity, ripe apple notes, molasses and brown sugar. The finish is long and spicy.”

CAO's are among my favorites, and the Italia is right in the hunt for my favorite CAO. Excellent flavor. Very consistent build. Smooth pull. I don't think I've ever needed to run a poker through one to get it to draw. A good value for really good quality.

Not as good as the brazillia go., a bit milder& less flavorful. Had a few where wrappers came undone. One had a large leaf stem through out most of the stick. Some a bit messy with ash & burn. Most of the other so far have been pleasurable. Will have to see with rest of box.

The CAO Italia is my go to for a 30-45 minute smoke after dinner on a Friday or Saturday. I enjoy the Robusto sizes because they are short but with the larger ring size provides all the flavor I could ask for.

I received my firs box of the Italia and have been very disappointed. Every one that I have smoked, is like trying to draw air through a wet sponge. Because I've had to poke hole down the length of the cigar to get a draw makes the cigar bite and not a good bite. I do however enjoy the Brasilia. This is my opion.

CAO Flathead V660 Carb 10 Cigars Deal

CAO Flathead V660 10-Pack only $10 more!

For a limited time only, for just $10 more, receive a CAO Flathead V660 Carb 10-Pack ($117 value) with any qualifying CAO box purchase!  

A Real Blockhead…

‘Murica, son! Home of hot rods, pin-up chicks, and CAO’s greatest offering: CAO Flathead. Borrowing inspiration from American muscle cars, Flathead not only sports a highly-unique shape, but backs it up with a high-octane blend. Instead of the traditional round or torpedo shaped head, this sleek handmade is completely squared off. 

Heavy in the hand, CAO Flathead starts with a well-fermented Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper. Thick and chewy, the leaf conceals a bevy of Nicaraguan and Dominican long-fillers embraced by a Connecicut Habano-seed binder. Then, each cigar is carefully box-pressed. We could tell you how good it is, or we could say this — CAO Flathead has over 600 customer reviews on CI, averaging 5 stars out of 5, and is the highest rated 60-ring cigar by Cigar Aficionado. Ever. 

Named the #3 Cigar of 2015, Flathead received an astounding 95-rating, noting: “From the first light, this seriously squared-off cigar takes off with notes of ripe fruit, leather, and molasses that only gain intensity.”
