Blazing up a CAO Criollo Robusto

Everything has been a bit crazy here and my plans for videos to make got a bit derailed, but I figured I would tape it this evening as I sampled a new cigar. I have a backlog of videos I want to do now, so hopefully I should be able to get around to some of them this weekend when things are completely back to normal!

Sorry to hear about the burglary man, thats horrible. Hopefully they were too ignorant to run off with any pipes/tobacco :P I hope everything is replaceable and that the local authorities are able to get your things returned. Sweet smoke!

[PipesterJim]

Nope. They left the pipes and tobacco. They take the single malt from the drinks cabinet though :-(

Moo cigars are great...excuse me, CAO. haha. Cigars 3 times the price are not 3 times the cigar.

[PipesterJim]

So it seems. I am looking forward to sampling some other 'cheap' cigars!

I'm sorry to hear that news mate.. I hope nothing of sentimental value was taken.. What a horrid thing to happen.. Great to see you enjoying a bandless cigar.. Stiff upperlip mate, Tim

[PipesterJim]

Thank you, Tim. Nothing of sentimental value thankfully, just technological bits and bobs and booze.

Nice review.

I am looking forward to taking the cigar plunge myself.

(I am watching the video at 11pm and I can hear my son screaming bloody murder in the next room...)

Um, OK, My tobacconist has lots of very high priced Cubans too. What maduros that you have tried do you recomend?

I keep hearing good stuff about the Brazilia but it looks like the only CAO cigars that are available here are the one in the video and the box pressed aniversary maduro (I have one to sample).

I guess the companies figure that because we can get Cuban cigars easily here there is less of a market for cigars from different origins.

Last week I smoked 4. I am a man of modest means so at an average of £10 each that is too many!
