"Size does matter..."
Greetings Boys,
I sit here enjoying one of my CX2 belicoso's as I write this and I have to tell you. Cigar size matters. I bought this box based on trying a CX2 robusto a friend shared with me. While I am still enjoying this cigar very much, I find the smaller robusto to have more flavor. All in all, you can't go wrong with these, but if you are going to try a box, buy the smaller robusto. He's hoping some humidor time will bring out more flavor. See you in the smoke bar.

"Not the best CAO I've had!"
Not the best CAO I've had. Not constructed well, the head collapsed easily and drew too freely. Tasted only OK. For the cost... a big dissappointment.

"One of the best I've had"
Fantasic smoke. Long burn with a good draw and mild taste. Good at the list price but better if you can pick them up on the auction. One of my favorites... right up there with monte #2 and perdermo champagne reserve. I highly recommend this smoke.

"Not what i expected in anyway"
When I purchased this cigar I purchased it due to the high ratings it received. In the end i was pretty disappointed, construction was good and all but the poor amount of smoke produced disappointed me. It is sad when i Macanudo Maduro cigarillo produces more smoke in one puff that this cigar does in three. This is a purchase i do not plan on making again.

"Just...wow!"
I don't give many bad reviews. If I try a cigar and don't like it, I usually just forget about it. So you'll see my other glowing reviews here for Partagas, Oliva, Punch 'Rare Corojo', and several others including my favorite: Henry Clay. Well, the CAO Cx2 rates right up there at the top with the best of them, if not just a step higher. The double shot of Cameroon gives this cigar a taste like none other. And beyond that, the consturction (appearance, burn, draw, etc...) were near flawless. Had to puff a little harder to get a good draw on this size (Beli), but not too hard. The roll was firm, yet plenty yeilding to a good puff. It's a bit pricey (for my range, any way), so it won't likely make my daily rotation. But it's beyond a doubt worth every penny, and I might just work harder to convince myself I've earned the reward of a Cx2 at the end of the day!

"One of the best world over!"
The CAO family has created a cigar to be reckoned with. I have an eclectic taste in cigars and regularly smoke cubanos (puros) like Romeo y Julieta, Monte Cristo and Cohiba, as well as, non-cubans like AVO, Sancho Panza, and Monte Cristo White. If there is a Cameroon cigar I have smoked it. I must say that the CAO x 2 Cameroon is pure perfection!
