"Not great"

This is a mild and virtually flavorless cigar, you will get value for flavor and price from the mosaico line, that's the level of quality here.

"Not bad,but not great"

I got this in the Double Trouble sampler. I was really looking forward to smoking my first CAO but was not impressed. The look, burn,and draw were very good but it really lacked flavor. The taste was just blah. I got bored smoking it and was looking forward to be done with it. I did smoke it down to the last half inch hoping some flavor would pop out but nothing. It is better than my yard work cigars but not one I would use for a special occasion.

"Bad Cigar, would not suggest to anyone"

I purchased 5 of these, and smoked the first last night. I was anticipating a good smoke, but the draw was nearly impossible. I tried to roll it around a little but to no avail. The burn was very slow (from the stiff draw), barely generating any smoke. The taste was decent, but I couldn't get enough smoke for a full mouth feel. The burn became uneven after half of the cigar, and it wasn't until the final quarter of the cigar that it began to smoke somewhat well. If I light another of my 4 lefts cigars and experience the same toughness, I'll throw the remaining 3 in the trash.

"What's the Fuss About"

Well Constructed, nice draw, but will have to age these to be anything special in my opinion. Carlos Torano Cameroon 1916 is the better option.

"Mild and approachable."

The CAO Cx2 is a very easy-going, approachable mild-to-medium cigar. Unlike other Cameroon's with more prominent, oily wrappers, the Cx2 is relatively dry and tasteless and you really don't get much mouthfeel until the end of the smoke - the culmination of the cigar and subtle flavors in the Cameroon wrapper. My Cx2 cut well, lit and burned well, had a perfect draw and above-average construction; that is to say it looked and smoked great! Overall, a decent smoke, Just a bit too mild for my tastes...

"Maybe I just had a bad one"

This cigar has gotten many good review so I got one. I was really looking forward to it, but I was highly disappointed when smoking it. The flavor was so so, the draw was absolutely terrible, and the cigar started cracking when smoked. The wrapper seemed very brittle even though it was in the humidor for a while. Maybe I just had a bad one though.

"Very Nice!"

I am fairly new to cigars. However, just had a CAO Cx2. VERY enjoyable. Nice construction, very even burn, and great tastes. Would definitely recommend!

"Great rich burn!"

Very nice rich aromatic smoke. Consistent burn giving off a nutty earthy tasting smoke with a hint of spice.

"This is my cigar from now on"

I have been looking for a good cigar that I can call my own for some years, but never really found the one that is smooth and tasty. I have now found my cigar in CAO X2. I love it!
