I am a fairly new cigar smoker, but have already become an enthusiast! Out of the many cigars I have tried over the last few months, the best tasting, most delicious cigar I have tried is the new CAO Brazilia! How do others rate it?

I have only tried the Gol and the Amazon. I liked the Amazon better, a "very good" according to my notes. Remember, it's your boat; smoke whatever floats it for you.

welcome! For most cigars, check out the cigar database here. It is extensive and has reviews. On the home page you'll see the link.

I am a big fan of CAO, and this line in particular. I've yet to have a bad one.

I smoked my first Brazilia this weekend. I think it was an Amazon. In all honesty, the cigar really didn't do much for me. It wasn't bad but it didn't make me want to run out to buy a box. Admittedly, it was my third cigar of the day and maybe it didn't have the strength to stand up.

The interesting thing was it was the first cigar of that size I've ever had burn hot.

This calls for a very special blend of psychology and extreme violence.

I have tried all three and like them very much. I will say the Amazon is a bit uncomfortable in my mouth though.
