From CAO’s website: “15 years ago, a talented cigar rep was plucked from the sales world to begin an apprenticeship in the Dominican Republic, learning the art of blending tobacco. There he met the legendary cigar-maker Yuri Guillen, and a partnership was formed.
Since then, Ricky’s become an accomplished Master Blender, and he’s been all over the world sourcing the finest, most unique tobaccos for his CAO blends like Flathead, Amazon Basin and many more of your favorites. With the new CAO Session, Ricky’s gone back to his roots, blending his new signature cigar in the Dominican Republic alongside Yuri and his original team.”

Great draw, smoke output and taste. Didn’t need to relight. Consistent flavor.

Tight draw, reduced smoke output. Flavors of coffee, bakers chocolate, fruit and it’s sugary sweet. Earthy and woodsy with a small amount of black pepper. Tightly rolled. It’s like a desert.

I really enjoyed this cigar! Earthy and chocolatey sweet. I like it better than the Flathead 660 to be honest.
