CAO Consigliere Soldier 6 * 54, Box of 20

CAO Consigliere Associate 5 * 52, Box of 20

CAO Consigliere Tony 6 1/2 * 60, Box of 20

Always looking to stand out from the crowd, CAO has introduced the CAO Consigliere, a full-bodied premium cigar hailing from Nicaragua. A consigliere is an adviser, usually to a crime boss or mob lord, and the CAO Consigliere is certainly a take-no-prisoners, let's-get-down-to-business type of smoke that will have you on your knees thanks to its extremely rich blend of Colombian, Dominican, and Nicaraguan fillers inside of a Honduran binder and covered by a dark and oily Brazilian wrapper. Deep notes of earth, leather, coffee, and pepper make the CAO Consigliere one to definitely watch out for, if you know what's good for you.

Cigar Origin
Nicaragua
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.
Strength

Medium
Wrapper Color
Natural
Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Natural wrapper, also known as Colorado Claro, is light brown in color.
Wrapper
Brazilian Mata Fina
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Hailing from the Reconcavo Basin region of Bahia, Brazilian Mata Fina, or 'thin forest', is some of the more popular Brazilian tobacco used. This stalk-cut sun-grown leaf is dark, medium-bodied in strength, and contains a smooth, earthy profile perfect for maduro or oscuro wrappers.
Binder
Honduras
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar and bind the filler tobaccos together. Honduran tobacco is known for being full-bodied. Cigars produced in Honduras are regarded for their consistency and quality. Using Honduran tobacco as a binder will add to the cigar’s overall strength and flavor profile.
Filler
Dominican Republic
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Filler (or “tripa” in Spanish) is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar. The Dominican Republic is considered one of the most premier tobacco growing countries in the world. The filler tobacco grown in this Caribbean island nation ranges from mild to full bodied. Olor Dominicano and Piloto Cubano are the main types of tobacco grown in the Dominican Republic.
Nicaragua
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Colombia
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Rolled by
Handmade
Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.
Manufacturer
General Cigars/ST Group
General Cigar Company manufactures premium cigars in several factories located in the Dominican Republic, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Founded by Edgar Cullman, Sr. in 1960, the company experienced incredible success with their Macanudo brand. After a series of acquisitions throughout the years that made General Cigars one of the largest cigar manufacturers in the world, the company merged with Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG) in 2010.

Patrick H.10/06/2025About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

Nice Cigar. Definitely would recommend to anyone who like a good hearty flavored cigar

Patrick S.07/15/2025About: CAO Consigliere Tony 6"1/2 * 60

Never been the same smoke. Since the name change. Otherwise it would be a 5/5 over all.

Ron M.11/17/2024About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

Not sure if it was due to letting it acclimate in the humidor or the V cut (new to me), but this was a great stick! A bit of an uneven burn half way through, but very tasty.

KRIS F.02/15/2024About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

Great Cigar burns like a dream and has a wonderful taste and is a real joy to smoke.

02/12/2024About: CAO Consigliere Tony 6"1/2 * 60

This was an Excellent stick !!! A Great smoke ????

Michael F.11/23/2023About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

Decent cigar for a decent price.

Vic V.09/18/2023About: CAO Consigliere Tony 6"1/2 * 60

Great cigar with great flavours.

Dustin G.07/16/2023About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

This stick easily makes it's way to the top tier of my budget friendly options.

Ben T.07/04/2023About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

Smooth burn all the way through. Great flavor!

mark a.02/28/2023About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

For the price, one of the best cigars!

Patrick H.12/06/2024About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

I'm a bit disappointed. My expectations were higher. Maybe after aAa

Patrick H.11/03/2024About: CAO Consigliere Tony 6"1/2 * 60

This cigar is an excellent smoke for the price. The label just snaps

Jon C.02/26/2023About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

Pretty solid cigar, probably the best CAO offers. Medium flavor, strength. A good anytime smoke.

Anant A.02/20/2023About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

Fantastic smoke! Had to smoke it in the car like Tony! More than a gimmick....great draw. Medium bodied smoke w notes of cedar. 10/10

anthony c.01/12/2023About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

This is my go to everyday cigar. Good draw and burn. Consistent taste

Nelson E.11/10/2022About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

I really liked this one. It was on the sweet side and I think it would make for a good morning smoke if you're looking for something a little heavier. The smoke output wasn't too great but overall I enjoyed smoking this cigar.

Alasdair g.10/21/2022About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

tight draw and delicate flavour but overall a decent stick for the price

Frank A.07/21/2022About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

Very tasty, one of my favorite CAOs. Love the taste of the Brazilian Mata Fina, excellent.

Chris W.07/06/2022About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

I never tried CAO until now. Amazing cigar

Philippe B.06/26/2022About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

Very spicy right from the start but it slows down to come back till the end. I had a little bit of wood too.

Steven D.06/20/2022About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

Big meaty flavours but required more than a couple of touch ups to keep it burning true.

Michael K.06/06/2022About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

Good stick...not my favorite...but a good solid smoke. I still prefer a Plasencia. The CAO Cosigliere Boss is worth what you pay. I'm just going to let them sit in the humidor a bit.

gregory f.06/03/2022About: CAO Consigliere Tony 6"1/2 * 60

Very nice cigar.

Mark P.05/17/2022About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

Worst cigar I have had for a while. Had the biggest stem I have ever seen and even when I managed to wrestle that out the draw was still awful. Shame I was I looking forward to this one!

Louis B.01/10/2022About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

Great cigar that goes well with brandy or amaretto. Good smoke output. Classic Cigar!

Fritz B.12/06/2021About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

Nice leathery smoke and the Boss (7" x 56) is a great size. Tony Soprano would be proud!

Alex F.09/16/2021About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

I know it is a cheap stick from the CAO portfolio but the construction was below standard here with the wrapper cracking while smoking pushed by the unevenly packed filler or binder. Drew and burnt surprisingly OK though (with touch-ups) but did not deliver the interesting sweet chocolate profile I am after when I smoke a Mata Fina leaf.

Patrick S.08/14/2021About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

CAO never disappoints. I realize it's pretty much the same as "The Sopranos" just rebranded. But something is just missing here. . .

james b.08/12/2021About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

Absolutely delicious

mark a.06/11/2021About: CAO Consigliere Associate 5" * 52

Buttery flavorful cigar

Charles R.06/09/2021About: CAO Consigliere Tony 6"1/2 * 60

Can't say enough about CAO great flavor from the begining to the end.

August T.05/28/2021About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

Great all around cigar.

John R.04/26/2021About: CAO Consigliere Boss 7" * 56

Jim S.09/28/2020About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

One of CAO's better offerings. Medium strength and body, very good draw, required a few touchups but overall very enjoyable.

Manuel H.09/07/2020About: CAO Consigliere Soldier 6" * 54

Great Smoke!!
