The Criollo seed is rich in the history of cigar making. Originating in Cuba, 'Criollo' simply means 'native seed.' Throughout Cuban cigar making, every spliced or hybrid seed maintained a base of the rich and sweet Criollo. Variations of the seed were continually developed in order to combat diseases such as blue mold. Often, Flavor was sacrificed as a result. Finally, a winning combination has been found that is immune to disease and is true to the flavor of the original Cuban seed. CAO compliments the Criollo �98 wrapper, grown in Nicaragua, with the finest Cuban seed Nicaraguan tobaccos. The CAO Criollo is a marriage of Cuban and Nicaraguan, with a flavor reminiscent of a bygone era and representing the beginning of a new one.
