The CAO Italia is made with tobacco from four countries: Honduras, Italy, Nicaragua and Peru. CAO Italia is a full-bodied smoke like no other that features a dark, smooth Honduran wrapper as well as Habano seed tobacco grown exclusively for CAO in the Benevento region of Italy. Bold, earthy and sweet, this cigar has been rated 91 and named one of the Best Cigars of the Year by Cigar Aficionado.

Cigar Origin
Honduras
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Honduras, a Central American country which shares a border with Nicaragua, is widely known in the premium cigar industry as the ideal place to grow Cuban and Connecticut seed tobaccos. Danli and the Jamastran Valley is considered the heart of Honduras’ cigar industry. The Jamastran Valley is known for producing a full-bodied tobacco that draws strong comparisons to the tobacco grown in the Pinar del Rio region of Cuba. This same region is also known for its Connecticut shade grown and Corojo shade grown tobacco. In addition, Honduras produces Cuban-seed sun grown filler tobaccos of the highest quality.

Wrapper Color
Colorado Maduro
Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Colorado maduro wrapper is milk chocolate brown.
Wrapper
Honduran
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Honduran cigar wrapper has the reputation of great quality, with wrapper leaf being grown in the Jamastran, Talanga and San Agustin valleys. Some of the wrappers being grown in Honduras include Corojo, Honduran Claro, Honduran Criollo, Honduran Jamastran Viso Rosado, Honduran San Agustin Havana Seed and San Agustin Ligero.
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
Italy
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Nicaragua
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Peru
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.

Anonymous Looking at at 10-15 travel humidor. On a 12 day trip would this keep the cigar's humidity with a Boveda pack thrown in? And would it keep them from getting crushed?

Posted 6/6/2020

Jeff Meant to add my name.

Replied 6/6/2020

NeptuneCigar.com This case is not as crush proof as a Xikar travel humidor, but it is reasonably rigid. If you were to include a Boveda pack, it will keep your cigars fresh for 12 days.

I would probably pay $10 more for this sampler than it costs. Great value!

James C.11/02/2024About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Firm construction with an open, easy draw and even burn with lots of thick cream smoke output. Medium to full-bodied with flavors of black coffee, dark chocolate bittersweetness, and pine/cedar with a spicy peppery kick.

Dan B.10/25/2024About: CAO World II 5-Cigar Sampler

Nice sampler for the price

Frank A.10/02/2024About: CAO World II 5-Cigar Sampler

Sam Y.09/30/2024About: CAO Champions III 10-Cigar Sampler with Humidor

A great selection of cigars. The 660 and Pilon are excellent, the Brasilia, Italia, and America are all great, too. The humidor is well made and very useful!

Luis R.05/24/2024About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

My favorite cigar.

Miguel E.03/08/2024About: CAO Champions III 10-Cigar Sampler with Humidor

This travel humidor box is better than expected, it looks and feels like real leather, I will call it Ferrari Red Leather. Nice double zipper, good seal one closed and the fact that the interior is lined with cedar wook is just perfect. You could easy fit 20 cigars in here. I say the Humidor box is worth whay you pay for the entire package. Inside the box is the treasure of all 90 plus rated exquisite cigars. By the way, I purchased 8 of these to give as gifts.

Gary R.02/26/2024About: CAO World II 5-Cigar Sampler

Great pack

Sam Y.05/21/2024About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Honestly, kinda mediocre. Flavor is meh, and the burn required a few touch ups. Draw seemed to get looser as it burned, but started a little snug.

Adam G.11/11/2023About: CAO Champions III 10-Cigar Sampler with Humidor

Tried my first CAO (pilon), can't wait to try thenother 9. The travel humidor can hold quite a lot of cigars. Will need to figure out how to use it without damaging cigars though due to only an elastic band on both sides to hold all items within.

Marcus S.10/12/2023About: CAO Champions III 10-Cigar Sampler with Humidor

around the world in 7 days was an absolute joy and tasty experience. The travel humidor is nice but needs to be seasoned and loaded with Bovida packs in order to maintain humidity.

Stewart P.08/16/2022About: CAO World II 5-Cigar Sampler

I have had CAO in the past and they have been fantastic. Unfortunately this sampler didn't have anything new that blew me away. I've had the Colombia and Brazil before and knew they were good smokes but the other 3 were less so and the US one lasted about half a dozen puffs before being chucked. The draw was poor and was very bitter. Star ratings was for the pack on the whole not for any one individual stick

Bakhodir S.08/16/2022About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

An interesting smoke. Has a fruity sweetness and cinnamon brown sugar aspect to it. Nice draw and burn with a v-cut. Like others I prefer the Brazilia in the world tour too but I enjoyed this one as well. Well worth revisiting.

Austin M.05/29/2022About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Having smokes all but one of these before I wasn't disappointed with the selection that is included. The only one I had not tried was the Flathead 660 which I really liked. Mainly purchased it to get the travel humidor. I had a original 1st edition CAO Champions travel humidor that has had the snot beat out of it over the years and lasted much longer than I expected. Just wanted a new one without the battle scars.

Great sampler.

Jamie S.05/11/2021About: CAO World II 5-Cigar Sampler

I just smoked my first CAO cigar from this sampler pack and I have to say it was so good. I am a newbie to cigars but I loved it. Smelled amazing and tasted smooth.

Franz B.04/25/2021About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Really nice aroma on this one. Good aroma. Taste pretty standard...nothing special.

Guillermo A. L.10/31/2020About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Surprisingly good stick, has a great flavor, while strengthening throughout the burn remained enjoyable.

Fritz B.10/26/2020About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Probably my favorite cigar.

Cody B.10/20/2020About: CAO Italia Gondola 6"1/4 * 54

Was great!

Hubert S.10/16/2020About: CAO Italia Piazza 6" * 60

A bit mild for me

John09/28/2020About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

I may have gotten a badly rolled one. I used a straight cut and poker but still could not get a loose draw from it. Extremely tight draw, could not even get 1/4 through it.

Joe C.09/21/2020About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Great quality cigar. Awesome burn and taste.

Todd G.07/08/2020About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

I did not enjoy this cigar. The draw & burn were not very good.

zeb m.07/06/2020About: CAO Italia Piazza 6" * 60

Very balanced and tasty.

Anthony T.11/05/2018About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

This was a great smoke. the burn was nice and even and the first two thirds were smooth on the palette. Last third had a little bitterness to it, but still tasty.

Luis S.08/19/2018About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Good cigar

Robin C.05/18/2018About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Had a very bad experience with this cigar. The draw was awful, burn even worse. The few from the box that were oke, tasten good

FABIAN C.04/09/2018About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Cao Italia is a delightful cigar. Well constructed, a bit on the tight side in the draw, and with some burn issues, but flavorful stick. Has some woodsy, earthy tones to it. Also, a semi sweet background that makes it very enjoyable. I will be buying more of this one!!

Deirdre S.03/01/2018About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Did not have the robustness that I'd expected. The test was bland and there were no distinquishable notes to my palate. A big fan of CAO, this was a disappointment.

Hans N.01/30/2018About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

I realy like the CAO blend and the Italia is a favorite!

Eric C.10/23/2017About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Amazing!, smooth great drawn perfect burn, nothing negative to say. Will purchase again. A+

ted y.07/22/2017About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

I admit I wasn't too sure what to expect from this cigar. Besides the very attractive price point and reviews from other Neptune customers, CAO isn't the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about premium cigars (at least in my mind anyway). I've tried the Pilon and Amazon Rainforest and absolutely love them. So why not, I ordered a box of the Ciao to see where it'll take me. At first glance, and excluding the tacky cigar box, it's a beautiful dark chocolate looking stick. So far so good. Taste wise you can definitely taste chocolate, coco, some coffee and hints of hay. More on the high-mild low medium side for me, the taste was consistent throughout. In fact, I thought it was a little too one dimensional: what you taste during the initial puffs is what you get. An enjoyable smoke but nothing that made me say "Wow." Having said that, if you are on the budget conscious side who likes mild cigars then these babies are for you. As we all have different tastes, what I like may not suit you. And besides, who knows, maybe it'll wow you.

Al C.07/07/2017About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

A unique cigar that should be tried by all. Pretty solid flavor profile from start to finish with an earthy base, some wood and leather but, never anyone of those forceful and to the front. Pairing should be no problem as this cigar brings out the best in adult beverages. I liked it a lot with a nice red wine / Merlot. Price is easy to live with and you should have a few of these in your humidor at all times. The only thing I didn't care for was it's short finish and that's because I enjoyed the cigars aroma and flavor delivery so much. Italian tobacco is unique and if you like a solid medium / full that is earthy, you will be glad you smoked this unique offering from CAO.

Cameron S.06/29/2017About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

I really enjoyed this cigar

Jorge O.06/08/2017About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Good cigar

Joseph F.05/27/2017About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Great taste. Very different from other tobacco ive head before

Paul R.04/01/2017About: CAO Italia Gondola 6"1/4 * 54

The Gondola gets your attention right away with it,s bite at the start and settles a bit half way. I enjoyed the taste and appearance. Looking forward to relaxing with the rest of the cigars in the box.

Jason M.03/24/2017About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Great flavor and great aroma but the draw had me wanting to put this out going into the 2nd third. Maybe i got a bad one but the flavor and price make it worth a revisit. Just not any time soon.

Lord P.12/19/2016About: CAO Italia Gondola 6"1/4 * 54

For this cigar, refer to my review of the CAO Italia Ciao 5x56 ... but ... take out the clauses describing the burn issues. The Gondola didn't have any significant burn issues at all and still had all the wonderful flavors. The draw was slightly on the tight side, but again, not a significant issue. This is a definitely a buy-a-box cigar!

dylan b.12/03/2016About: CAO Italia Piazza 6" * 60

this was my first CAO cigar and i have nothing but nice things to say great price great smoke

Hans N.09/08/2016About: CAO Italia Gondola 6"1/4 * 54

Another one of my favorites iCA assortment!

Harold S.08/28/2016About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

This is my #3 go-to smoke. Always good.

Lord P.10/27/2015About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Mixed emotions about this cigar. On a positive note, after toasting, the cigar erupted with predominantly rich leathery flavors and a natural tobacco sweetness. It really showed off with tons of smoke and beautiful aromas! In the first third, the flavors were smooth and creamy with a thick full bodied flavor. Into the second third, the flavors became a little sharper with a bit of a bite, but not harsh or bitter. Overall, wonderful flavors and a real winner... worth buying a box or two. And as always with the CAO cigars, I love love love the brilliant deco style graphics! On the strength-o-meter, I'd put this one solidly on the medium mark. Now for the bad news... The burn was problematic. It had a tendency to tunnel, and it required a couple of re-lights and several touchups. If you don't mind keeping your lighter handy, this cigar is a real winner! Pairing notes: With its rich earthy leathery flavors and natural sweetness, this cigar will pair well with just about anything you have in front of you. Light beer, aged rum, coffee, bourbon, absinthe, tequila, brandy, liqueur, etc, etc, etc, ... ... ... !

Lin c.06/11/2015About: CAO Italia Gondola 6"1/4 * 54

Nice Value. Nice Flavor

Vito D.12/29/2014About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

This is a cigar that can be smoked down to the ring and taste smooth.

Frank C.10/01/2014About: CAO Italia Ciao 5" * 56

Well worth waiting for. Arrived fresh, I started smoking them as soon as I opened the package.

jorge r.09/25/2011About: CAO Italia Gondola 6"1/4 * 54
