CAO Mx2 - Cigar Links Edition 15

By Jesse | May 18, 2008 |

Last week we took a look at the CAO Brazilia, this week I want to take a look at another one from CAO Cigars. As I said in my review the CAO Mx2 has been one of my favorites for a very long time.

The CAO Mx2 was launched at the RTDA Trade Show in 2003. The Mx2 uses two maduro leaves, one as a binder and one as the wrapper. If you haven’t tried this cigar before I’d place it somewhere between the CAO Maduro and CAO Brazilia in flavor and body.

Here is what some of the other cigar sites thought of the CAO Mx2:

Walt at Stogie Review liked the CAO Mx2, but thought the cigar didn’t finish well.
Top 25 Cigar gave the Robusto an A-.
Keepers of the Flame liked the MX2 but prefer the Cusano 18 Paired Maduro.
Smoke Rings gave the CAO Mx2 a 3.8/5.
The Blog of Many Hats also liked it. His biggest complaint is that CAO has too many cigars to choose from.
Coffee and Cigars tried the Dagger, as wasn’t real happy with the draw.
Bullz Eye rated the CAO Mx2 a 9.1, but also found the cigar didn’t finish well in the last couple of inches.
