I thought it tasted like a giant chocolate bar, but one dimensional.

It was probably the last CAO I liked, but I took into consideration look, shape, packaging and the cigar.

Was a nice smoke. I still have empty coffins, but the sticks have been gone for a while now.

Yeah these were pretty smokeable for a CAO. I agree with Matt on the 1-D flavor. It had a Rosado wrapper if memory serves... I'm sure a brother here has a few lying around...

you mean 2016 and 2019 as the year right? surely your son's will not be under 18 for over 100 years?

Awesome Idea. Start them off with something hard to find. Have you had one yourself?

Guess I'm just stupid today. I looked at those years twice and still went with it.

These came out when I first was really getting into cigars. Smoked a few back then and really liked them so bought a few to put away and then decided yo save them for my boys. We'll see if they make it that long.

i've smoked and really liked a few of these in the past, so a few years ago i bought a box and ive only lit up 2 or 3. i couldnt decide what to smoke tonight, and i didn't feel like going south of miami, so i grabbed one of these. my last one was at least 18 months ago, probably closer to 2 years. this one started out great, but after about 20 mins it just kinda died. even started to turn bitter only 1/2 way through. im pretty dissapointed and not sure when i'll kill another one. not sure why it was such a let down, as they've been great to me in the past. :dunno:
