Produced today under the General Cigar Company, CAO cigars are handcrafted using premium tobaccos from Nicaragua, Honduras, the Dominican Republic, Brazil, and beyond. Every cigar is a story — a fusion of tradition and adventure, appealing to both new smokers and seasoned aficionados who crave something different.
From the exotic CAO Brazilia and rich CAO Italia to the spicy CAO MX2 and award-winning CAO Pilón, each blend is crafted with passion and precision, offering distinctive flavor complexity and perfect construction. The CAO Flathead line, inspired by American hot-rod culture, has become an icon among cigar lovers for its box-pressed design and full-bodied character.
CAO’s philosophy is simple: explore the world through tobacco. With each puff, smokers discover a new region, a new taste, and a new story. The brand continues to push boundaries, blending Nicaraguan craftsmanship with global inspiration to create cigars that are as adventurous as they are refined.
