Cigar Coop rates the Red a respectable 90. The description is spot on on all fronts. “This was an excellent offering.

CAO Classic: Pilon
$138.42 – $179.82CAO Classic: Pilon continues to be one of this company’s best sellers for almost a decade.
Pilon gets its name from the fermentation technique that goes back to 1800s Cuba. Skilled workers called piloneros used a slow, 18-month fermentation technique using smaller round pilons instead of today’s huge square ones. The result is an enjoyable smoke producing a complex medium to full bodied flavor with a great blend of sweetness and spice. In fact, when Blind Man’s Puff recently revisited this cigar, their rating went from 91 to 93!

Macanudo Inspirado Orange
$50.99 – $133.69Macanudo Inspirado Orange is the first of the company’s hugely successful boutique entries.
With that being said, the Inspirado Orange line started out as a European exclusive, but eventually made its way to the United States in 2018. Since then, Inspirado Orange has earned countless awards and solidified its spot as a humidor must-have worldwide.
Unlike the traditional Cafe series, this style was more medium bodied with a smooth character and more moderate price. The success of the “Orange” entry led to the additions of Black, Red, White and Green Inspirado brands.
Receiving a 92 rating from Cigar Aficionado caught the eyes of many non Macanudo smokers to say the very least. Their description is spot on. ” Inspirado Orange is simply a great cigar that produces a rich, buttery smoke enriched by leather and mesquite qualities and a bright finish of almonds and black pepper.” Getting a 93 from Blind Man’s Puff backs up the accolades as well. “This was an enjoyable cigar from start to finish.”
If you’ve never tried one of these highly rated cigars, now’s you chance. Any one you choose is a top pick!

$170.82 – $206.82Macanudo 1968 is one this iconic company’s very special entries. With this in mind, this great cigar was made to celebrate the company’s 40th anniversary in 2008.

These masterfully crafted cigars are smooth to their finish and wonderful to smoke.
With attention to detail, the 1968 edition provides a full, flavorful and intricate smoke for fans of complex cigars. But don’t let this new approach fool you. 1968 still delivers intricately balanced flavor and inherent sweetness.

In fact, this edition was produced almost 20 years ago to achieve one purpose; to test the capability of your taste buds! This dark, oily vitola achieves its goal via a five country blend of fillers and binder with a serious twist. Underneath the ominous looking USA grown Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper lies an even darker Brazilian Maduro binder leaf.
You can expect an open draw yielding aromatic smoke and a tight ash for starters. From start to finish, this medium to full bodied cigar is slow burning producing undertones of sweetness, spice and espresso.

CAO New Age: Flathead Steel Horse
$158.22 – $197.82CAO New Age: Flathead Steel Horse is a follow up to the very popular original Flathead series.
This complexly blended cigar is wrapped in a proprietary Connecticut Habano Grueso [meaning thick] leaf featuring tobacco from four countries containing Brazilian Arapiraca as the binder along with Honduran, Nicaraguan and Dominican tobaccos comprising the filler. In short, this is an entirely different cigar from the original Flathead. As a bonus, each cigar is in it’s own individually box.
The result is a medium to full bodied box pressed cigar with uniquely smooth flavor notes. Think roasted coffee beans, sweet raisins and bits of peppery spices for starters. Hey, don’t take our word for it. With Cigar Coop scoring it a 90 and Blind Man’s Puff at 93, we think you’ll agree that Steel Horse is another winner for CAO.

In the height of the “Cigar Boom’ of the 90’s, CAO added this line of cigars to their offerings. Until then, they were known for pipes, humidors and other smoking accessories. When this cigar hit the streets, Cigar Aficionado’s review then still holds true today. “A silky, smooth wrapper on a well-made medium bodied cigar. It is earthy, with wood and sweet spice notes.” Oddly enough, in 2109 they rated this blend a score of 91. No doubt the CAO Gold was a winner then and is still pleasing smokers today.

CAO World: Colombia
$142.02 – $179.82CAO World: Colombia is one of this company’s very popular World Series.
This highly rated cigar utilizes a unique blend of Colombian and Brazilian leaves found nowhere else. But the key to this amazing, medium bodied cigar is the Cameroon African binder. The cigar is well constructed and tightly packed from head to foot. Despite the amount of tobacco, this vitola has a wide open draw with a slow burn.
When Cigar Aficionado gave it a score of 92, the industry took serious notice. Their review still holds up. ” A large, thick cigar that draws and burns evenly. It’s core of earth and wood is balanced by sweet, fruity notes of black cherry and nougat with a nutty touch of cashew.” What more do you need to know about this very exceptional cigar?
