For some reason, which I'm trying to remember, I volunteered to take on Tony's challenge. So here go's nothing.

What a horrible thing to do to yourself on a nice Saturday afternoon!

I didn't have a lot of time to smoke all of these, so in my infinite wisdom, I decided to double fist the robusto and the corona.

The first time I put this in my mouth, it reminded me of eating a sugar cube. As I got into them further, the sweetness mellowed out a bit and I could even taste some mild, tobacco and a hint of cedar. That being said, the strongest flavor by far was cream soda, but with a hint of chemicals, maybe pesticide? Good thing I paired these with a Root Beer Big Gulp!

The most surprising thing that struck me while smoking these was the construction. They clipped nice and clean, lit easily, had great draws, and burned perfectly. Too bad they taste like ass!

Next up to bat were the petit corona and the tubo. I had to move to find some shade for the tubo, which was the last of the four to be smoked.

The flavor of these two were pretty similar to the others. I was amazed again though by how well these drew and burned. I might have to try some 'regular' CAO after smoking these.

Here's the end result of an 'interesting' afternoon spent outside.

Damn man, How come you didn't nub these things??? :laugh:
 
You haven't had a regular CAO? And yup, that's pretty much what I expected you to look like...you dopey ass Philly lover.
 
Oh man Tony isn't going to be happy with smoking 2 at once. :(
I was hoping to get a one by one review on this. At least when Loren got the idea I told him no. Oh well.

Either way not a bad review. Like I say you never know what you like/don't like without trying it. By the way, CAO does make some pretty good sticks. If you can give a Vision a try.
 
Nice! That nasty sweet taste. I used to think the Kaluha cigars were awesom before I got really serious. I tried one about a year ago and thought it was the nastiest thing. I can still taste the sticky sweet flavor just thinking about it. I chucked it after about five draws.
