CAO Amazon Basin
Toro (2024)
Toro · 60–75 min smoke · A longer robusto — more time for the blend to evolve through its thirds without committing to a Churchill.
At the counter · Wide guillotine, patient -toast, smoke unhurried — the length rewards a slow burn through each third.
Rare
Tasting
The 2024 return of CAO's rainforest cult toro, built on Amazonian Braganca tobacco for an earthy, floral, cedar-and-spice profile unlike anything else in the catalog. · Released 2024

“Ten months of age has done wonders for the CAO Amazon Basin, the flavors are slightly more complex and no longer feature the earlier harshness.”Read on halfwheel

“I enjoy the rustic nature of the construction of the cigar... it does have a slight cocoa smell to the wrapper. It is dark and oily. Upon initial lighting, you do get some spiciness as well as some cocoa flavors.”Read on Reddit r/cigars

“I think they are definitely worth it, I enjoyed every puff of it. I found a box at my local lounge, only picked one stick because I wasn't sure about the hype and regretted it later as they were all gone 1h later.”Read on Reddit r/cigars
