CAO Cigar

The CAO CX2 is a much loved cigar amongst Cameroon wrapper aficionados. In early 2003, the triumph of the CAO MX2, which stands for Maduro times two, was unparalleled.

Upon the CAO MX2 release it was one of the most ordered hand made cigars on the market, and the CAO MX2 still continues to this day to be equally as popular and hard to get.

With the blends overwhelming success, a couple of years later, the CAO family launched the CAO CX2, which stands for, yes you guessed it Cameroon times two, which consist of two Cameroon wrappers and a medium to full bodied mix of Nicaraguan tobacco.

The Cameroon wrapper tobacco is one of the cigar industry's most popular wrapper leafs. The tobacco grown in the central region of Africa has a rich flavor, however is extremely fragile and vulnerable to damage, giving each cigar company a low yield of functional cigar leaf.

This makes Cameroon tobacco extra costly and harder to locate. By uniting two of these rich wrappers in one premium cigar, CAO has made a huge ground breaking innovation which is changing the way people consider Cameroon cigars.
