"Wonderful"
These are great maduro's (still prefer the brazilias)but one of these with a glass of 10 cane rum and it's probably one of the best ways to pass an hour on your off day

"STOP THE LAQUER!"
Ok now I am seriously bummed, for the lack of a better term, Somebody needs to Dope slap the CAO folks so they will stop RED LAQUERING the inside of the boxes or at least wait for the paint to dry before packing!
Three boxes in row from different dealears that the paint has imparted a noxious flavor to the tabacco! CAO! LISTEN UP! Go back to the old box before you destroy these beautiful puros reputation! I am storing the cigars naked in their own humidor for now, and the paint flavour seems to wane with time, but come on!

"top shelf stick"
My favorite CAO, -bar none- bought my first box in 2000 and have had been buying them ever since.
have had some slight flavour changes over the years though, but not enough to disuade me.
Just kick it back with a good ale (or three) and enjoy!

"Overall, a great cigar!"
Have only tried them in a 5 pack in the auction. Got them at a GREAT price; worth more than I paid. Smooth, not too strong but a full-bodied taste. I agree with the description on the Famous web site. Have always burned evenly with a good white ash. Bidding on a box now.

"NOT WORTH THE MONEY"
I expected a lot better out of this cigar. It started kind of sweet, but became a little strong and boring. I like maduros to be sweet, and mild to medium bodied, and this was neither to my taste.

"Light one up with a glass of Makers Mark Bourbon!"
These beauties are outstanding!! A rich, cocoa and coffee flavor with an exceptional draw. Beautiful construction and a perfect burn. Grab yourself a glass of Makers Mark Bourbon, throw in a couple cubes, snap the end of one of these and enjoy the next hour of your life. It doesn't get any better than that!!

"The most enjoyable cigar I've ever experienced."
Without any reservations I can say this is the most flavorful, aromatic and enjoyable cigar I have ever tried. They make a great humidor too.
