# CAO Cameroon Review #14 by TheDeuce

I wanted to not like this cigar. The local B&M didn’t have any short stories in stock. So they suggested this stick as an alternative. I will say I enjoy Nicaraguan leaf over Dominican. This cigar burned flawlessly. Construction was great. By TheDeuce on January 13 2023 9:09:34 AM

## Great alternative for short story.

I wanted to not like this cigar. The local B&M didn’t have any short stories in stock. So they suggested this stick as an alternative. I will say I enjoy Nicaraguan leaf over Dominican. This cigar burned flawlessly. Construction was great. Tight draw from the start, but to be expected with the shape of the cigar. It was good enough for me to turn around and buy a box to keep on hand. For $40-$60 less than a box of Fuente short stories, it’s hard to beat.
