Default Re: Flavours CAO

I often use an analogy when describing flavored smokes to people not in the know. To me, flavored cigars are like flavored coffee creamer. It's designed for people who don't like the original flavor of the coffee…or brew bad coffee and are trying to make it palatable. I don't think they're using über great leaves for flavored smokes. The ones I've had tasted like flavored creamer in bad coffee. And I just couldn't get past the poor tobacco.

YMMV

That's a pretty good way to describe it. I'm a new smoker, and have tried my fair share of CAO Flavours and Acids. If you like them, great. But, once you find a premium cigar you like, you'll rarely, if ever, go back to flavored sticks. For me, it was a RyJ Habana Reserve....AMAZING.

If you like the Habano reserve, try the San Lotano Habano. Mmmmm.
