Calcium oxide (CaO), commonly known as quicklime or burnt lime, is a widely used chemical compound. It is a white, caustic, alkaline crystalline solid at room temperature.

"Dude, we can't carry cows... They weigh like 800 pounds! Maybe a small goat or a few chickens, but cows? No way...."

not to mention the smell they would make in the walk-in, all our cigars would be flavored!

Played golf earlier this year with a guy that told me if I wasn't smoking COWS then I was missing out.

Yeah, it's convoluted enough that I had to go double check the dates.

So, insert theme to The Brady Bunch tv show here...

2005: Swedish Match finishes acquisition of General Cigar.
2007: Henri Wintermans, a subsidiary of Scandinavian Tobacco Group A/S (STG), acquires CAO & Torano.
2007: Swedish Match acquires Cigars International and associated holdings.
2010: Swedish Match merges with STG. STG retains controlling interest so company name remains Scandinavian Tobacco Group.

Thanks Adam. I missed the whole STG merger, never heard word one. I'm less confused now, but I'm not sure what the odds of retaining any of it are.
