Stogie and the rest of you cigar guys...

Have you seen this?  CAO isn't even one of my favorite brands, but I just ordered a box of maduros to get entered to win this bad boy.

Wow, outstanding.

It's about time I bought a box of CAO's!

I am a huge CAO fan, as is my son.  Never had a bad smoke produced by them.

It's been 10 years or more since I tried CAO.  Looking through my Thompson catalog, they appear to have added a lot more variety since then, so maybe I'll like them better this time. 

I tend to gravitate towards the maduro wrappers, so naturally my favorite is Onyx.  Nobody does maduro better, IMO.

I picked up a pack of B&M moonshine-flavored myself for a fishing trip this evening. They tend to disappear too soon for me to need a humidor, however.

CAO's USA distributor was located in Nashville until a couple of years ago.  I had a buddy who worked for them and got me started on CAO. 

If you like a Maduro you would probably like this one:  http://www.cigarsinternational.com/cigars/11188/cao-gold-maduro/

Hard to go wrong with an Onyx.  That's another solid choice.
