CAO Black Bengal Cigar Review

Posted on Wednesday, July 29, 2009 in Cigar Reviews

This 6×50 stick offered very creamy smooth flavors including wood, leather, cocoa and a hint of chocolate at points, with a nice pepper kick coming in and out on the finish which was very short and clean. Burn was very good needing only a tiny touchup 1/2 way through, and the draw was excellent with just the right amount of easy resistance. 1 1/2 hours to the band point, where it became pretty warm and nutty.

nice review!

I never had any of the CAO Black, because like you said, I cant find them locally I might have to pick up a few if I see them in a 5 pack when I order online. I also like the Toro size myself, so I would probably pick up this exact stick.

Thank you so much for this review. I’m a beginning smoker that wasn’t quite sure where to go as far as my flavor profile preferences. After watching this review you described everything I have been looking for as far as tastes go. Just picked up a five pack online, couldn’t find it anywhere else. I guess it adds to the mystique of these sticks. After I receive these in the mail, how long should I let them rest? Thanks again, keep up the great work.

Thank you! I would let them rest after shipping at least a week.
