Flathead V23 - CAO Cigars

CAO Cigars

Nov 8

As with most cigars, there is a great story behind the V23. It was crafted in commemoration of the 100th Anniversary of Le Mans. A powerhouse, full-bodied blend inside a GT inspired box. General Cigars Co. says this cigar was inspired by the Ford GT40 that won the famous 24 hour race from 1966-1969. So its official vitola (size) is labeled as MK1 660. A fantastic box press cigar that all cigar lovers should try. And the MK1 shape on the front of the box is meant to emulate the famous V8 engine in the GT40.

The V23 has a tempting Honduran wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and fillers from Brazil, Nicaragua and Honduras. This is a powerful cigar yet very refined. The flavors in this cigar will hit about as fast as a V8, MK1 motor. Bold yet smooth, flavors of leather, earth and spice abound throughout the cigar. If you enjoy Honduran cigars, you’re probably enjoying a cigar that was grown in the Jamastran Valley of Honduras.

This cigar from beginning to end is sure to get your heart racing.
