[...] Verdict: I didn’t have the severe burn issues I had other people mention, but it did require a couple touch ups. I still love the Brazilia line and definitely recommend it to anyone who likes a full flavored cigar. You may also want to check Alex’s review of the CAO Brazilia Gol! [...]

I finally had one of these on the weekend (though, it was the Samba, so not exactly the type reviewed) and DAMN! that’s a good cigar. I think this will definitely become a regular item in my humidor. Thanks for reviewing it and, by extension, giving me the idea to try one for myself.

I haven’t tried the Mx2 yet. I have one that I’ve been aging for far too long. I was actually going to finally light it up this week, but I’ve got a bit of a chest cold, so I’ll have to wait. No point in lighting it if I won’t be able to properly enjoy it.

Dalmore Cigar Malt is very good, and not terribly expensive.

The CAO Brazilia is one of their best cigars. Currently though I’m really on a CAO Mx2 kick.

Adam,

Whoops, my mistake. It’s actually The Dalmore Cigar Malt. Not sure why I thought it was a McAllen. But yes, it’s called Cigar Malt. It’s blended to complement tobacco flavors. It’s a very very good scotch.

Cigar Malt Scotch? Is that a typo or is it actually called that? Either way, I’ll have to check out the McCallen. I’m always looking for new scotches to try (and new cigars, of course).

Jason -

Yeah, as far as I’m concerned, the Gol! is the best Brazilia size, too. It definitely has the best burn, and just the right balance of filler/wrapper flavor. I don’t know what they do to their tobacco in Brazil, but I hope they don’t stop!

Adam -

Thanks for the kind words. And FYI, the Brazilia also pairs very well with the McCallen Cigar Malt Scotch (10 year, single malt), which is an excellent Scotch in its own right.
