good smoke worth a try

Smooth full favor

One or two were inordinately dry

Great stick!

Nice burning, good taste, stays lite to the end.

good smoke

Excellent smoke

Good cigars for the money. Lot of flavor.

A complex blend of distinct flavors with an even burn, consistent draw and excellent construction for a reasonable price. I've enjoyed CAO's Flathead, Brazilia and Pilon cigars for years but the Italia is their best.

This is one of the best Cigars, I have every had!!!!

Solid, well made cigar. Stronger than I usually smoke but glad I bought them! 👍👍

Good smoke

All of the cigars had a good draw except for one but other than that they were very good cigars with lots of flavor lots of smoke nice aroma

CAO is becoming my brand to go to. I have sampled most of them and found them to be Very good overall.

Love them…mostly for the taste!

It's a ok cigar, nothing like the cao carb 660.

All CAO CIGARS ARE very nice and smooth smokes. Thompson always does a great job taking care of customers

Very smooth cigar. Great flavor and a really good burn

Decent cigar, burns good

Great size, good burn, and rich flavor.

Good smoke

Always a great stick....bold flavor,good burn just a relaxing smoke.

Good Draw, very consistent in staying lit and burning evenly, didn't find any knots in any of the cigars. Over all really good smoke. would buy again.

They were a little dry, which affected the flavor. Decent cigars at a good price. Easy draw and pleasant aroma

good morning smoke

Really great smoke nice burn and great flavor all the way through

This wasn't a bad cigar for a daily smoke. It had a decent taste. It burned evenly all the way to the end. The draw was fine if you use the guilliotine cutter rather than the V cut one.

These are the best! Always consistent, always burns well. It's my daily 'go to' smoke!

The cigar was well made, not too tight, had a good draw and burn. I love Habano wrappers but as with most CAOs I have had, it was a little strong for me.

Recieved my smokes on time. Haven't indulge with any just yet but soin!

Great stick! Easy draw and nice aroma that the wife really likes too! Give 'em a try!

Great cigar. Glad I bought as many as I did. I know they'll make more. Thanks

must have been a bad 5- pack, it fell apart and had a terrible burn, flavor seemed old!!!!!!

I’m no a cigar aficionado so you won’t get quotes on aroma, finish, etc. The “Italia” is smooth and easy to smoke. I enjoyed them maybe you will too if you give them a try.

Great smoke,EZ draw, taste to the finish.

Real good smoke

very good cigar

Ok cigar. May give another try in the future.

Excellent

Excellent construction, good smooth draw, nice aroma. Good with a brandy One of my favorites.

Great taste and good smoke

Bold but not too strong. Almost a nutty, chocolate taste

All round good

Wonderful cigar.

Some of the cigars didn't burn smooth.

Close to excellent, nice even burn

Good overall cigar. A bit bright in flavor profile, but that’s neither good or bad, a matter of preference. Some of the cigars were a bit tight. A little time in humi should straighten that out.

Perfect smoke for anytime

Very nice medium strmgh Maduro cigar, burned evenly with a good.draw and very nice flavor especially towards the end .

No taste

Nice size and shape. Excellent draw, and a nice finish.

Medium/ Mild w/ great flavor Great priced everyday smoke!

A consistent smoke all they way through.

I liked them but they were a bit to bold

Good draw, mild to medium flavor. Will be buying more.

Dry, old rough raw smoke with a flavor of garden leaves. Very disappointed

Very nice smoke.

Na

Enjoyed

Draw was great! I recommend these cigars

Better than I anticipated

Nice cigar

Smooth with plenty of flavor

Thanks Thompson for your "Bullseye Blowout Sale" emails that allow me to try good smokes like these at a great price! Picked up 15 of these beauties for just $49.99! Rated 92 as recently as 2017. There's a reddish, colorado-maduro gleam to this dark cigar, whose creamy smoke is lush with fruity, ripe apple notes, molasses and brown sugar. The finish is long and spicy. Tasty and bold.

A good stick for its price point. Smoked better after 2 weeks in my humidor as they were a bit dry upon receipt.

A nice cigar. Smoked one last night.

Good flavor

Awesome cigars, meraviglioso! The price was great and these cigars are better; rich, robust, and tasty.

Nice smoke very smooth

Dry !

Awesome cigar with plenty of smoke with a smooth easy draw. The smell even catches my wife's attention and she doesn't normally like cigar smoke.

Probably my favorite from CAO. Enjoyable in the morning with a cup of coffee and the draw is slow enough that you get to enjoy the delightful aroma of this classic cigar.

Very good cigar very good service

Not a bad smoke but inconsistent on the burn

very smooth

Good draw, nice aroma, Nice smoke

Flavor good, smoke ok, draw average

by far it is my favorite cigar. Very smooth. draws and burns very nice.

Good for a quick smoke but enjoy the Flatheads better. Smooth easy draw.

Draw was fine. Aroma was fair. Did not care for flavor as seemed harsh

It's a can't miss! Always draws well and burns even. It's my 'go to' smoke!

Nice robust flavor, clean smoke all the way through.

Great smoke and great value full flavor smoke

This cigar brings back a lot of memories from my youth for me. It has a lot of the notes that I remember smelling around my father’s Italian friends as a kid. Really, it is a decent smoke with a good draw and even burn. At its best the aroma and flavors are magnificent however, it does suffer just a bit from CAOs lack of consistency, in my experience, and the notes my sometimes come across much harsher than what you’ll have remembered from the last few that you’ve smoked.

Good construction, smooth draw, great aroma, no bitter aftertaste. Can't wait for Thompson to get this cigar back in stock!

You can’t go wrong with CAO!

Great cigar

Slow flavorful burn that doesn't go out. Nuts evenly. Tastes great

yes

Good daily smoker. Last a decent amount of time and not crazy expensive. One of my top daily choices.

The cigar has a pleasant aroma before lighting and even better aroma after lighting. It draws evenly and is a cool smoke.
