The CAO Brazilia showcases the fuller-bodied side of CAO. Its dark and spicy wrapper make it very flavorful paired with a long leathery finish.
CAO is the maker of some of the highest rated brands in the world. For years CAO dreamt of a cigar that uses premium Brazilian tobacco, but finding good Brazilian leaf at the end of the cigar boom was not an easy task. At the time Brazilian tobacco was not at the top of its game. However, CAO stumbled on a beautiful dark wrapper leaf from the coveted Bahia region and the CAO Brazila was thus born. After its launch this cigar brought attention back to Brazilian tobacco and essentially was the rebirth of Brazilian cigars in the US cigar market, as other cigar makers flocked to South America in attempt to recreate CAO’s success with the CAO Brazilia. The rich Brazilian wrapper gives the CAO Brazilia a full-bodied and full-flavored aroma that carries a long and spicy finish. It is a truly unforgettable cigar, and a powerhouse addition to the humidor. My personal fav is the CAO Brazilia Box Press - simply amazing!
