CAO Black

[Gonz]

Cbid's got 100 boxes of CAO Black "Storm", which is basically a robusto starting at $59.95. CI sells them for about $95 usually. I've heard they're good, and actually just got box of the Bengal last week, but haven't had any yet.

Here's the link.

What do you guys think of these smokes??? I liked it, but i can't believe how much praise CI gives them. Best smoke they ever had??? WOW

Here is a thread about CAO's in general that has some opinions on the Blacks, as well as a short review I did on the CAO Black.

The guy that CI quotes that says it's "....the best cigar I've ever had..." has clearly led a very sheltered existence..... :laugh:

Cheers - B.B.S.

Not the best smoke, not even the best CAO. It's an ok smoke. IMO.

Their good...good full flavor with a strong body...not the best ive ever had, but FAR from the worst! 60 bucks for a box is a steal in my opinion.

Well, I heard somewhere or saw something that made me think you knew what you were talking about, oh yeah, it's the posts and time as a member here!


Even though cigars and tastes are a personal preference, feedback from folks who know what they're talking about is what I'm looking for!

Thanks!

That only applies to Whisk(e)y, in cigars I'm king of the mediocre.

Well, this auction ended, and I've got a box of these on the way. For $68.00, which isn't a complete steal, but not too bad since they're normally around $94 over at CI.

Now if I could just figure out how they decide who pays what. There were some folks who got these for $65, while others got em at 68, and a few who didn't use autobid, and just simply paid 71 or higher.
