Brand Profile

With a 93 rating from Cigar Aficionado, box pressed CAO Extreme cigars are must try cigars for those who prefer a cigar with a bite.  The CAO L'Anniversaire line was launched to commemorate the 30th Anniversary of the CAO brand, and the CAO Extreme is the third cigar within this line. This is a wonderfully dark and rich full-bodied cigar with a pepper flavor and notes of sweetness with a dry, bold finish.  Don't be fooled by the name Extreme - as they are not and overpowering cigars. Rather they are extreme in their complexity of flavors and depth.  CAO Extreme cigars are a blend of five different Nicaraguan fillers, a Nicaraguan binder and thick, oily, Ecuadorian Sumatra seed wrappers.
