CAO: Flathead Carb Cigars

Product Number: 007-012-0214

"Cigars, cars and girls"; that would be the theme which inspired CAO's latest entry. The series' name presents an obvious allusion, the squared-off, box-pressed vitolas (not to mention their individual nomenclature) is intuitive, and for those who order by the box, there's a box-lid designed as automotive-style wall art and a vintage-style "cheesecake" illustration - mind you I'm talking about the pin-up variety here, not pastry. (Though they are pretty sweet, and staring at them for too long may well cause one to salivate.)

So, they've got a theme down solid. But what about the blend? Well, for that they've got flavorful Nicaraguan and Piloto Cubana Ligeros taking center-stage as the filler, and Habano Connecticut and dark Connecticut Broadleaf taking their own places as binder and wrapper, respectively. In short, this is a stick that's got the go to back up the show.

Product: CAO Flathead Carb
This is one of my favorite cigars. It's got a rich, dark flavor, like a dark roast coffee, with some chocolate notes and that awesome Nicaraguan sweetness. It's got some noticeable touches of pepper and leather as well, and that maduro wrapper makes it taste thick and oily. Perfect medium to full nicotine level gets you a good buzz but doesn't overpower. Excellent and under-rated smoke....Read More
