"Wow. Just. Wow"
Ive been a fan of CAO for a while now but I haven t smoked one in a few months or so so I stopped by the shop and grabbed one of these. Even though I felt it was a bit overpriced $14.00 I had recently seen the documentary on CAO and wanted to try these again. I m smoking as I write this and every puff is a treasure. In fact I m struggling not to overheat it because I tend to get greedy. I usually smoke La Gloria and I don t stray far from my chosen brands but I think I ll go with these for a while and see how it turns out.

"Excellent go to cigar when wanting to relax"
I was introduced to this excellent full bodied cigar about six months ago. I am always traveling and have found cigars shops during my visits to go and enjoy this fine cigar. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a cigar that starts well and ends extremely satisfying. I have since retired some of my other go to cigars because it s hard to improve perfection. Great job thanks all who have contributed to my lifes sinful pleasures.

"Never lets me down!!"
One of my favorite cigars at always great prices from Famous Smoke. Flavor doesn t get much better and has great draw with lots of creamy, white smoke. This Brazilian wrapped babe is just awesome! Always going to be stocking these. Even better is the absolute zero after taste the next day. A true top cigar that flies under the radar in my opinion.

"General Cigar Has Killed the CAO Brand"
General Cigar's recent acquisition of CAO is a sad thing. They have changed the MX2 and Brazilia cigar lines so drastically that I will no longer be smoking CAO cigars. I have smoked CAO's Brazilias and MX2s almost exclusively for over 10 years, but their horrible immitation of CAO's original brilliant blends are un-smokeable. Gone is the lush, oily wrapper and complex taste. General Cigar has replaced them with a very dry leaf and a one-dimensional, flavorless blend. The construction of the cigar is equally disappointing. The wrap is loose and the cigar tends to just fall apart. I cannot express how disappointed I am in what General Cigar has done to my beloved CAOs.

"General Cigar Killed This Brand"
The CAO Brazilia used to be my favorite cigar. It was until General Cigar got their hands on it and changed this brand completely. My review reflects the new, General Cigar CAO Brazilia.

"Great draw, tasty past 1st inch, full yet mellow"
Just had the CAO Brazilia, and I have to say I'm impressed. First time trying it and it wasn't very tasty about until an inch or so into the burn. However the stick gives a great flavor and a nice pillow of smoke with a draw that I found to be extremely easy.
Burned for about 1 hr 20 mins.
Pros: Great draw, nice full yet mellow flavor.
Cons: Zero flavor in 1st inch (maybe I just had a weak stick)
Anyhow, great cigar, will most likly be visiting the Brazilia family again.
