My understanding is they are the Odyssey, with a different band and box (the Odyssey was the special edition CAO in the black coffin). I don't think CAO has ever officially acknowedged that, but their release was timely with the existence of the Odyssey.
I've had both - they both tasted comparable (very mild, and pretty much tasteless). A shade better than a Macanudo, but not by much. They really aren't a bad smoke - just extremely mild. If you're into flavorful smoke - this would not be the cigar for you. If you want a good morning smoke that won't make you hurl - this would be it...
Cbid was blowing through them a while back. Most were sold in the $5-15 range (depending on how badly someone wanted one). $5-10 is a pretty fair price for them...
