    CAO

    CAO will go anywhere to find the exceptional tobacco they’re looking for - And they have! They’ve been all over the world, procuring some of the finest and rarest leaf known to man.

    The jungles of the Amazon. The mountains of Colombia. The valleys of the Dominican Republic and the volcanoes of Nicaragua. And nearly every point on the map in between.

    And in all their travels, they’ve discovered something - "When we remove boundaries, borders, and limits from the process, what we’re left with is a tobacco experience unlike any other."

    PILON

    When the CAO blending team set out to create this cigar for the CAO Classic Series, they went with a fermentation technique used in old-world Cuba: the round pilón. Dating back to the 19th century, a pilón is a stack of tobacco leaves meticulously arranged in small configurations. This process of natural fermentation maximizes the flavour and colour of the leaves to deliver a taste and appearance unattainable through other methods.

    CAO choose to use this method because it really delivers when it comes to flavour. It also reduces the ammonia and sugar content of the wrapper leaf, to improve burning and combustibility. Agustin Garcia and Rick Rodriquez have experimented with pilón fermentation for several years. It’s a very labour-intensive process and they took all the time they needed to perfect it.

    This fermentation technique does such incredible things to the tobacco, but only when they were sure it was the right time to create a line around this classic technique was the decision made to bring this new brand series of CAO to the market.

    Cigars need a BOOST?

  • The blending team applied pilón fermentation exclusively to the silky Ecuadoran seed wrapper and built the blend with spicy Nicaraguan filler and binder leaves from the distinctive growing regions of Estelí and Ometepe. The result is a collection of well-balanced cigars that bear a deep, rich colour and an incredible depth of flavour, featuring notes of wood, spice and a touch of sweetness.
