Loading ...Smoke notes are not full reviews, it is notes I take while smoking.
The CAO Flavours are out casted by some and loved by others. I do not consider myself a a flavoured cigar smoker but wanted something different tonight. I picked the Petite Corona.
The cigar itself comes with a green ban, a cedar sleeve and a fabric green ban on the foot. It has a couple medium sized veins for this small cigar. It weighs in at 4×38 and the cap looks to be sloppily put on.
The pre-light has a pipe tobacco smell, a very sweet taste and a firm draw. Unfortunately the pipe tobacco smell was about the only good thing about it. After firing it up I got very little smoke and and a tight draw. The taste was almost like a burnt mint leaves.
I only lasted about 3/4 inch before I put it down. I also picked up a Earth Nectar but will wait a while before firing it up. I will stick with a Oro Cabano tonight.
This cigar: Shitty, a waste of $3. Never again.

Only to people who smoke flavored cigars. And with the intent of helping them bridge the gap between what you can buy at a gas station and what you find in a proper humidor. You gotta admit, they’re a step up from Swishers and White Owls!
(Actually, I’m not sure that I’ve ever tried one of these. I will admit to finding the Drew Estates Java a pretty good smoke.)
Brian, I have had one Java and remember liking it and I like an Acid at times. I have had another CAO Flavours a long time back and remember liking that. I’m not big into these but at times they hit the spot.
This one just didn’t work for me at all.
