Actually it is. Just not the cigars in it.

True, the box would be a fun addition to a collection, I just don't think the cigars would wow me.

I keep tying to like this cigar, but I just can't. The box is pretty cool though.

This must be a west coast review, "slap your mom good!" Pleaze...

ITs " Slap yo' Momma good"

No comment on the CAO brand,I'm just trying to maintain a little integrity in the reviews around here..

With so many cigars on the market, presentation and marketing can be everything even though the cigar may not worthy.

Examples:

Look at the marketing and presentation of the Partagas 150's.
Look at the marketing and presentation of the Opus X
Look at the marketing and presentation of the CAO Vision

Not a knock on any of those cigars mind you but the presentation alone can make an everyday consumer choose one of the above over more plain-jane type presentations when on the shelf among thousands of other boxes of cigars.
