CAO Maduro Robusto

This cigar is a beautiful box pressed cigar with a very dark maduro wrapper. Prior to lighting it I could pick up hints of spice in the wrapper. It burned okay but did require a couple minor touch ups. I didn't have any problems with draw or falling apart.

The cigar gave off a decent amount of smoke that reminded me of the smell of baking sour dough bread. I didn't really pick up any hints of pepper and it did not burn my throat at all. Espresso and a dark chocolate flavor were the boldest flavors in this cigar with some nutty flavors coming out in the last half.

Overall this was a very enjoyable smoke and got smoked down well past the band. I enjoyed the flavors of the cigar and it is also very affordable. The only drawback was that it did not as evenly as I would have liked. I give this cigar an 8 out of 10.

I really enjoy the Belicosos. I have some Coronas that are really super tight and require a little fight to get them to draw. I had to cut the tip in front of the label. I do enjoy the mocha, leathery and earthy notes in these and they are very smooth and creamy right to the end.


Thanks for the review...

Definitly one of my favorite NC's. I've enjoyed each one i've had.
