CAO Criollo Pato Natural cigars present the 'old world' flavor of Cuban-seed Criollo tobaccos in an outstanding luxury cigar. Perfectly aged Criollo 98 wrappers encase a robust blend of Nicaraguan Cuban-seed tobaccos for a rich, complex, aromatic cigar with traces of walnuts and sweet spice.

I was a disappointed in the wrapper,fell apart as I smoked it,but nice ash,good taste other than that I have enjoyed this smoke. I did solve some of the wrapper problem after putting the cigars in a humador for a couple of weeks. Over all about a 8 out of ten. However the box they come in is very COOL

"Excellent flavor, wrapper and burn problems "
The wrapper is medium reddish brown and trans... moreThe wrapper is medium reddish brown and translucent, very thin and lightly veined. It has a wonderful pre-light aroma, damp and earthy. It lights evenly and easily, with a creamy almost malty aroma. But the binder was heavily veined and expanded along the veins, cracking the wrapper and causing a very shoddy, scraggly ash. There were runners which had to be corrected. But the flavor remained wonderful and was worth smoking to the nub.

Or a Cuban RyJ Exhibicion #4? I like my Fuente's, but Nicaragua seems to be producing cigars closer to the Cubans I like. This is even better than my Padrons. This is worth every penny of the $3.00 I spent for it at Famous and a whole lot more!

"Not another Cuban! "

I have found that like most cigar deliveries a week in the humidor will do wonders for the wrapper / burn problems described by others here. But I find that true with all brands.
If your honest with yourself you'll admit that these little jewels compare with the best Habana's. (well maybe not the Cohiba's, but those are $32 apiece at Sanborns)

Know this though, you will *probably* NOT enjoy these right off the truck as much as you could if you give them some time to sleep. The filler is quite oily and, as a result, the draw and burn will frustrate many. the best bet is to allow them to sleep at least 6 months. If you can't hold out that long give them 2 weeks to rest then dry-box them for 3-4 days. return them to the humi for another 2 days then enjoy. This will allow the oils to harden enough to get a decent draw and will allow the cigar to stay lit without countless re-lights.
