CAO Pilón Añejo 

The blend for Anejo which roughly translates to “aged pile,” uses Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, Nicaraguan binder and long fillers. While most cigars utilize the standard fermentation process of drying the tobacco in a traditional pilon, CAO goes one step further by aging the tobaccos an additional two years so that its flavors reach their maximum potential. This is a medium-to -full bodied smoke, offering luscious notes of mocha, leather, cashews, and hints of chocolate. I did enjoy this cigar but honestly i had a lot of touch ups with my tourch. If you find this online or at a cigar lounge pick one up and try it yourself and let me know what you think.
