Nashville - CAO, was awarded a '90' rating ("Outstanding") for its most recent release — CAO America — in the October 9 edition of Cigar Insider and was also the 'Featured Cigar' of the issue.
Cigar Insider is the bi-monthly newsletter published by Cigar Aficionado magazine, widely regarded as the ultimate authority on the world of premium cigars. In a feat unprecedented in the history of the premium cigar industry, this marks the tenth CAO cigar line to receive a ‘90' or above rating from Cigar Insider and Cigar Aficionado.
"We're honored to receive this recognition, and I believe it is a testimony to our continuing efforts in developing blends that are not only unique, but maintain our level of quality, as well," said CAO President Tim Ozgener. "Our goal has always been to produce cigars that are diverse in taste but consistent in excellence; that this is our tenth CAO brand to receive the benchmark ‘90' rating in just over ten years is a testimony to the hard work everyone has put forth at CAO."
Packaged in boxes of 20 cigars, CAO America cigars are available in three shapes: Potomac (5" x 56), the torpedo-shaped Monument (6 ¼" x 54), and Landmark (6" x 60). £
