“Criollo” translates to native seed. It was an experimental hybrid seed grown in Cuba when they were searching for a solid tobacco strand to fight mold and other agricultural difficulties. It was later picked up by CAO and debuted as the CAO Criollo. Immediately it was dubbed a cigar that could compete with the finest Cuban cigars on the market.

The CAO Criollo is another solid addition to the CAO family and a Nicaraguan masterpiece.
