So I found Cigar Jones of the Bvld, and I was pleasantly suprised to find a cigar lounge of this caliber. Great selection, great accomedations and plenty of sitting room.
So I picked out a few cigars, and decided to have a CAO Italia for the time being, if I recall it was Ciao size. I toasted with a match but ended up using a torch to light this 56rg stick. It was a very sweet start, which was nice, a very damp textured smoke that made for easy smoking. The draw was like other CAOs I've tried, volumous, easy and gentle. It gave hits of 'rainy cedar' with peckings of fruit and walnuts. Clean white ash and grey smoke, very sharp burn and nice even packing.
It was pretty consistant throughout, did not get hot or bitter. It was not the most exciting smoke ever but very relaxing and easy. On the CA scale I'd give it a 79 - worth getting it again.
