CAO OSA SOL LOT 58
The latest stick from CAO is the OSA SOL LOT 58. A
Nicaraguan/Honduran blend wrapped in a Connecticut Broadleaf binder with an
Olancho Agustin wrapper from a 2008 crop will make an interesting review
because I’ve never had this type of wrap. The last new cigar from CAO was the
LA TRAVIATA and that was an awesome smoke.
After
punching my cigar I’ve decided to light my cigar with my trusty Xicar dual
flame torch because I’m feeling lazy. At first draw the cigar tastes a little
green but I hope it will work its way out. A quarter of the way in the green
taste has smoothed out and is being replaced by a woodsy and cedar flavor. The
strength is light to medium and has surprised me. The size is 58 ring by 6 inch
long and that is why I thought it was going to be a little more towards the
medium to full range (kind of expected it to be the same strength of the La
Traviata). A third of the way in the burn is even and the ash is still attached
do to the excellent construction I’ve gotten used to from CAO. The flavor has improved
and it is now showing a little of spice. A little past a third and the ash has
finally fell of and stayed together, lucky for me because it fell on my shirt,
the plume of smoke is almost gray and the spice has definitely become more
noticeable. With two thirds gone the stick has turned out to be a good smoke
but not what I would normally smoke. The finish of this cigar has once again
surprised me in that it stayed light to medium and spicy.
The CAO OSA
SOL LOT 58 is a good smoke for someone who is looking for a light smoke with a
medium finish. I recommend trying it and hopefully you will enjoy it.
Thanks for reading ……the Cigar
