Kuzi, you told me how good the Italia is in another post once and have yet to try it. I've gotta get my ass in gear and pick up a few of those.

for real though!!!

I need to smoke the one maddy sent me. I still haven't tried them.

I've heard great things from more than just Kuzi, I have some friends in a cigar group here I meet with and a couple of them have really liked them too. I think I might go pick up a few tomorrow since I'm starting a 5 day weekend! WOO HOO!

What the hell, you must work for the Government, or at least the state.. Those are the only people that get that deal. ( I'm one of them too ). Good for you, enjoy the time off.

The CAO Brazilia Samba is one of my regular smokes, I really like this blend but personally feel it's best in the Samba and Amozan sizes, let it rest a bit and smoke it slow to keep it cool. Great smoke. If you find you like it also try the Gurka Ancient Warrior in the same sizes. Cheers!

Sounds like you had the Gol! size in the line, it's (IMO) the strongest and fullest of the line and my personal favorite, but i prefer stronger smokes. Try the Samba or Lambada (torp and toro respectfully), little smoother and not as peppery so the flavors come through a little more. If you can hold off a few months, they really start to develop.

On a sidenote, I tried the Italia tonight as Kuzi recommended. Holy crap was that a good cigar! So far aside from the Brazilia, CAO has really impressed me. I'm wondering if it wasn't mostly just a bad cigar or a bad light, I'm going to have to give it another shot, everything else by them I've tried has been fantastic.

had the brazillia today-was ok but i would not buy again-just didn't do it for me-how does the italia differ? kuzi?

smoother, rounder, more complex, not as "maduro-e" ...it really eases off of the coco and coffee. the Italia is a bit woodier as well though i wouldnt exactly call it a "woody" cigar.
