CAO Black Ltd Edition

This is one of the finest cigars produced by CAO. It is a limited edition of only 6,000 boxes to be sold in the United States. CAO unquestionably has earned the reputation as a manufacturer of superior cigars and it seems that they've pulled out all the stops on this one. This tobacco blend was crafted using extensively aged, top-tier tobaccos and packaged in beautifully hand-painted and hand-numbered boxes. Each cigar is individually wrapped in cedar. The wrapper is Ecuadorian-grown Connecticut shade, the binder is Nicaraguan-grown Habano-seed, and the filler is a complex blend of Nicaraguan, Honduran, and Mexican tobaccos. This is a very complex cigar that is medium to full bodied. We found it to be loaded with creamy, spicy flavors, with hints of vanilla and cedar. Look for it to mellow nicely about a third of the way through and offer plenty of smoke volume. An excellent choice to pair with a full bodied cabernet or Barleywine style ale.
