CAO FLATHEAD V21 CIGARS COMING TO RETAILERS IN AUGUST
JULY 16, 2021 - CAO is about to put the pedal to the metal with a souped-up follow-up to the wildly popular V-19 blend. Called CAO Flathead V21, this new release was created by Rick Rodriguez and the CAO blending team in Nicaragua to kick the Flathead franchise into high gear.
Rick and the team selected a Mexican San Andres wrapper for the blend which also includes a Connecticut Broadleaf binder, and a bold selection of Nicaraguan and Dominican ligero tobaccos. They then gave each of the filler leaves an abbreviated fermentation to lock in the tobacco’s native characteristics and added a secondary aging process to the filler to bring everything together. The result is a cigar with a medium to medium-full profile brimming with distinctive molasses and leather notes, this time with even more depth and complexity.
“For Flathead
V21, we wanted to give our fans a cigar that’s bold and complex, and still perfect
for any smoking occasion,” said Rick Rodriguez. “We see this as the ultimate cigar
for the CAO smoker who wants to experience the complexity of each tobacco with
every draw. I’ve personally enjoyed V21 on its own and with a drink and have
experienced different notes every time I smoke it. To me, that means we’ve done
our job.”
The boxes that
house CAO Flathead V21 are racecar red, with a bold black sash that culminates
in the brand’s logo on the front of the box. Each box contains 27 cigars.
Big Block V21 (7 x 70) – SRP per cigar $14.99
