A limited-edition premium.
CAO performs some time-tested blending techniques in its latest release, CAO Arcana Mortal Coil Cigar. To shed light on the tobacco processing methods used centuries ago, CAO practiced an old-world fermentation process to create Andullo tobacco.
It is important to note that Andullo tobacco is made, not grown. To speak compendiously, Andullo is created with cured tobacco leaves that are swaddled tightly within palm tree pods using rope. They are then hung to ferment for up to two years, turning the tobacco into hard, inky black sausage-like logs. While Andullo has been used for pipe smoking for hundreds of years, when used in cigar blending it provides a deep, extremely earthy sweetness.
It is safe to say that CAO has made good of their intentions to reach back in time for new inspiration. CAO Arcana Mortal Coil premium cigars starts with a dark, Andullo-style Connecticut broadleaf wrapper housing a Connecticut shade binder and filler tobaccos from Honduras, the Jamastran Valley, Nicaragua, Estelí, and the Dominican Republic. Medium to full-bodied, Arcana Mortal Coil oozes class and flavor, providing notes of cocoa, black pepper and that quintessential Andullo earthy sweetness. With such excellent construction and classic fermentation techniques, its hard to pass CAO Arcana Mortal Coil by without giving it a try. Get your box today!
