They are a good smoke - a little inconsistent though. When they are really on they are really good and when they are a little off they are still a pretty good stick. Given the price I wish they were more consistent though.

Just me but I find all of them seem to smoke better if they rest for at least 30-60 days. I rarely smoke anything on arrival unless it is just one I pick up at the B&M to enjoy right away.

I gotta disagree with this statement... I think they make quite a few really good sticks, ie Italia, Brazilia, Mx2, Lx2, America. They do have some over hyped crap but I do enjoy a few of their products.

I have had good experience with most of them too and several are really good but I have some Gold Maduro's that are pretty sorry.

CAO makes some good sticks, just maybe not as good as their marketing departments.

The Sopranos are pretty good. If you are looking to give them a try, you might want to look for the sampler CAO released with each of the vitolas. I found some at JR a while ago at a pretty good price. I'm guessing they were looking to move the last of the inventory.

no JR here sorry

Ahhh, just noticed the location. I don't suppose that is Quebec, North Carolina . . . nope. Probaly not.

Good luck in your search. I would add that the comparison to Gurhka is pretty solid. Stronger, earthy smoke. Good flavor, IMHO.

I used to like them a lot when I was smoking NC.

I've been wanting to try them myself. Heard lot's of good things. I think the CI +5 deal is good but I've seen a box of them on cigarmonster for a sweet price the other day. It was still out of my box range though.

[Reply]

I enjoyed them, but the price tag for what they are I didn't agree with.
