CAO American Slyce

[kelmac07]

A new CAO Flavours stick was released. While not normally a fan of flavoured sticks, I had to order the 4X30 tin. Love me some apple pie. Maybe a perfect pairing for Macs Apple Pie 'Shine. :D

CAO American Slyce: This new, limited-edition blend was created by utilizing natural apple flavor and a special blend of spices. The end result is a delicious profile of cinnamon, apples, and nutmeg. CAO say it smells like freedom, and let’s face it nothing smells more Americana than fresh apple pie.

Still laughing that CAO is calling this a "limited edition" stick. :r :r

Wish they would introduce these in 5 packs or single sticks. The girlfriend noticed these and now she's all pissed off because they only come in cans on 20. Figures lol.

I'm certain it doesn't make it alright Jason. I just have this thing for apple pie...had to try 'em. :D

The real question is...what if I enjoy it? :hm

[big_jaygee]

[kelmac07]

Had one of these today with some Macs Apple Pie 'Shine.

What the hell was I thinking? :fp2 This thing was horrid...sugar coated tip to start, then straight sugary, rotten apple flavor with a hint of what tasted like burnt cinnamon followed. I gave it the old college try (for about an inch) and then had to pitch it. :td :td :td

Came straight in the house and handed the remaining 19 to Kellie and said "They're all yours babe".

[363]

glad to here you gave it a try

LOL! Sometimes the flavors just don't translate well to a cigar. I'm a huge, HUGE, Irish Whiskey fan. About two years ago I picked up a couple Erin Go Braghs thinking they might go well with a glass of whiskey or on a cool night a nice Irish Coffee. I wanted to like them...I really did. But to me they tasted like the very last bit of aftertaste you get about 20 seconds after swallowing cheap whiskey, not exactly the flavor profile I'm looking for. A shame... :)

Have you thought about trying to make your own infused cigars using your shine?

[stearns]

sounds pretty close to what I was expecting to hear :r

[cobra03]

Mac I would have been far more surprised if you said you actually liked them. Unless this is just a sly cover so we give you your man card back. :r

[Bleez]

Mid-life crisis averted. Congrats Mac!

[kelmac07]

I tried to enjoy it and actually wanted to. Guess it just wasn't meant to be.

[hudd]

was able to purchase singles at a tasting last week. Bought a couple for the wife. She really enjoyed them. I didn't care for the taste of them but they sure smelled good.

[Ciro]

Came straight in the house and handed the remaining 19 to Kellie and said "They're all yours babe".

If Kellie doesn't like them you could always bring them to Dom's BBQ and give them to Brendon. It would pair well with his Horse and Buggy. :r
