My thanks go to the pay it forward and Lang Daddy for sending me one of these smokes.

This Cigar looked beautiful it had a great sheen to the wrapper had a delicate veiny presentation and it was solid construction all the way, it had a fresh scent that said I’m a bit young.

I clipped it and carefully drew off of it, nice flavor Hmmm. The draw was flawless not one that was neither labored nor too easy.

I toasted the cigar and thought this is different, took an initial puff and right away said wow that’s nice.

It started right away with a creamy flavor of a slightly spicy and nutty base, almost a hazel nut background a real nice flavor all in all. It was not one-dimensional.
It built into a mix of a toasty medium powered smoke. Still a great flavor but not one of the strong for strongs sake cigars that all too often companies put out.

The finish was where this cigar lives IMO never getting a bit harsh it finished with such a great after taste it continued to build and started to show a hint of sweetness. I can only imagine this smoke with some age on it.

My overall opinion is that this cigar beats the others that CAO has presented to us
Would I recommend this cigar? YES by all means.
This is one Cigar I would gladly take into a regular line up.

I shall now be seeking more of these in different sizes to try out.
