CAO Gold Maduro Toro

I finally got to try the CAO Gold Maduoro. This is a bit of a sleeper gar; I didn’t even know CAO was making a revamped version of this cigar until a friend told me about them. I didn’t believe him, but then, sure enough, started seeing them advertised on various websites. I bought this particular cigar at Vendomes because I wanted to try it before investing in a box. What an amazing smoke. CAO took everything good about the traditional Gold line (classic mildness, smoothness, etc.) and stepped it up by adding a sharp, toothy maduro wrapper. Draw and burn were the same (not perfect, but decent enough). It’s the best of both worlds. A triumph. Try it today, you won’t be dissappointed! CAO has also released a maduro version of its Black line. I haven’t tried it yet, but you can be sure I will.

I smoked the CAO Gold Maduro Churchhill last night and was far from impressed. It seemed to lose all the greatness of the gold and replace it with bitterness, not maduro flavor. Perhaps the churchhill size is no good for these or I got a bad one. I’ll have to try another size.
