CAO Flathead
CAO Flathead is the ultimate homage to American ingenuity, muscle, and grit. Inspired by hot rods and classic pin-up style, this cigar is as bold as its aesthetic. Sporting a unique box-pressed design with a squared-off head, Flathead is an unconventional masterpiece both in appearance and flavor.
Heavy in the hand and built like a finely tuned engine, Flathead features a robust Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper, dark and chewy with layers of complexity. Beneath this sleek exterior lies a carefully blended mix of Nicaraguan and Dominican long-fillers, held together by a Connecticut Habano-seed binder. Each puff delivers a high-octane burst of flavor that revs up the senses and leaves a lasting impression.
The profile is rich and full-bodied, with notes of ripe fruit, leather, and molasses, all gaining intensity as you work your way through. Whether you’re a muscle car enthusiast or just someone who appreciates a strong, flavorful cigar, Flathead delivers in spades. It’s no wonder this blend earned the title of #3 Cigar of 2015 by Cigar Aficionado, with an astounding 95-rating.
