This is actually one of the few CAO's I like. Brazil's have a nice coffee bean flavor, with a woody core, a touch of leather, and some chocolate notes. Fairly strong, but most brunette's are :-)

I like them. I might bite and snag a box one day when I can gather some penny's together for it.

I haven't had a bad one yet out of the 4 or so that I have had.

I don't care for them, but I am glad you do.

I liked the Gol!, the Chango (tubo) not so much. Box-pressed was ok.

Probably one of the better CAO's but not quite box-worthy to me.

Piranhas (aka ""Fishies"")

Damn near a requirement in my humi.

Brazilias are the best CAO for the money.
One of the few CAOs that I like.

Chemyst :-)

I used to like these and the Italias. Haven't had either in a long time. This thread makes me want to revisit them and see how my tastes may have changed.

I tried one and didn't care for it. It wasn't that it was a bad cigar, I just didn't like the flavors.

I prefer the Italia, but I've been avoiding CAOs lately because every one that I light seems to have burn issues, no matter where I bought them from or whether they sit in the humi or not. The burn is very uneven and they tend to go out unless I constantly puff on it. I like to be able to sit back and relax with a cigar rather than have to constantly futz with it. It's a shame, because I really do like the Italia.
