CAO Amazon Basin (2024) Edited

Smoking a CAO Amazon Basin is like venturing deep into the heart of the rainforest itself—exotic, mysterious, and brimming with uncharted pleasures. The 2024 edition of this cigar unfolds like a well-paced adventure story. The dark and oily Brazilian wrapper invites you in with its earthy aroma, promising notes of adventure and the unknown. As you light it up, the complex blend of rare tobaccos harvested from the Amazon delivers a rich, robust flavor that transports you straight to the lush, damp undergrowth of the jungle. Every draw releases a symphony of complex flavors—spicy, with hints of herbal sweetness, much like the unexpected turns one might find wandering through the dense, verdant foliage. The craftsmanship is impeccable - a perfect burning stogie.

    Not a big CAO fan, but I do like the Flathead and the Amazon Basin. Only issue is the price rise since they were reintroduced into the market. 5 years ago, I could buy one for around 5 dollars.
