CAO Flathead 554 “Camshaft”

$5.75 (Limit of 5)Size: 5½” x 54
Wrapper: Connecticut Broadleaf
Binder: Ecuadoran Connecticut
Filler: Nicaraguan

CAO’s recent Flathead series of box-pressed cigars has been extremely popular, particularly the robusto (called the “Camshaft” – all the cigars in this line are named after car parts). A hearty blend of broadleaf, Ecuadorian binder, and Nicaraguan fillers gives this cigar a robust bass note of earthy chocolate with elements of spice (cinnamon, perhaps a touch of clove) and a pleasing sweetness reminiscent of coffee with caramel. A fine combination, one that is best enjoyed in this compact size…and at this week’s price, it tastes twice as good! Come down for a tune-up today!
