CAO, established by Cano Aret Ozgener in 1977 following his departure from Dupont, has emerged as a prominent name. The early 1990s witnessed CAO's significant expansion within the non-Cuban cigar market, culminating in the introduction of their inaugural cigar line in 1995. A hallmark of CAO Cigars is their willingness to procure tobacco from global sources, a practice undertaken to craft truly exceptional non-Cuban cigars.
Experience the exquisite CAO - OSA Sol Lot 50 cigar, blending the finest tobacco from Honduras and Nicaragua, hugged in a sun-grown wrapper from the Olancho Valley. Its perfect construction, draw, and medium strength create a creamy, medium-bodied smoke with hints of wood, leather, and earth. Indulge in this premium cigar coming in an innovative white box design for a unique and delightful smoking experience.
With the seemingly endless variety of cigars coming from Nicaragua & Honduras, it is impossible to compare even a fraction of what is available. This CAO is beautifully made, smokes smooth as glass, fairly mild with a pleasant if generic flavor. Does not stand out from many other Robustos, it is a nice smoke for the price. I wish it had a little more punch, but it does not offend the palette, burns great & never gets hot or bitter.
