CAO also had a Brazilia vs Italia set a few years ago. May have been offered around the last World Cup? I think it was called "The Artistry of Champions".

Two Brazilia blends, two Italia blends and one combination called "Britalia".

One of these days I really ought to light it up and see how it smokes. Since the foot of the cigar is the bottom (narrow end) of the bat handle, it should be rather interesting with the higher wrapper to filler ratio.
Pretty damn cool.

Check out Moki's site:

These aren't for sale, but you'll see some cool looking cigars.

I liked them a lot. The Sol Cubano not so much though.

The regular line had all the goodness in the wrapper, so it stands to reason the burberry wouldn't be so good. I think the reviews were "so-so" when it first released, too.
How was the artisan any better?
