CAO World: Nicaragua
$142.02 – $143.82CAO World: Nicaragua is one of this company’s very popular World Series.
All the fillers in this spectacular cigar all come from Nicaragua, specifically Condega, Estelí and Jalapa. The Honduran wrapper and binder comes from the Jamastran Valley.
While the jury’s still out deciding if this edition is either medium to full bodied or just flat out full flavored from the get go, what has been decided is this 90+ rated cigar is the most uniquely tasting one of the entire series. It’s generally agreed this darker cigar is robust and spicy. But who would have thought that a two country blend could produce a spearmint undertone in its overall taste bouquet?!

$147.42 – $179.82CAO World: Italia is one of this company’s very popular World Series.
The addition of rarely grown Italian long filler leaves to this cigar’s mix produces a highly rated full bodied, thickly sweet and spicy, bold masterpiece. Cigar Aficionado rates this jewel a very respectable 92. Their description is spot on. “There’s a reddish, colorado-maduro gleam to this dark cigar, whose creamy smoke is lush with fruity, ripe apple notes, molasses and brown sugar. The finish is long and spicy. Tasty and bold.”
And don’t forget about the large volume of wonderfully aromatic smoke thats perfectly matched to its long finish. Ciao Bella!

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?
