The CAO Flathead V660 Carb isn’t just a bold cigar—it’s a decorated champion. Named the #3 Cigar of the Year in 2015 by Cigar Aficionado and earning a stellar 95 rating, this 6" x 60 box-pressed gordo is a full-throttle smoke inspired by vintage engines, garage culture, and rock 'n roll rebellion. Handmade in Estelí, Nicaragua, it features a robust Nicaraguan ligero core, a spicy Habano Connecticut binder, and a dark, oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. Even the box is cool—its lid doubles as wall art for the true gearhead aficionado.
From the first puff, the V660 kicks off with a thick wave of chocolatey sweetness, layered over an earthy base. As it burns, hints of pepper and roasted coffee enter the mix, adding depth without overpowering. Then come the standout moments—floral bursts and rich cocoa weaving into the dense, flavorful smoke. It’s maduro done right: powerful, sweet, and just spicy enough to keep things interesting.
CAO Flathead is not your typical maduro. It's complex, full-bodied, and blended to appeal to seasoned aficionados. Flathead pairs well with coffee, dark rum, and dark beer, and can be enjoyed at any time of the day. Comparable cigars include Oliva Serie V Maduro and LFD Double Ligero Maduro. CAO Flathead has without a doubt put CAO cigars back in the spotlight, as nobody can wait to get their hands on one.
This is CAO’s Flathead at its finest—a cigar that doesn’t just talk the talk but drives the line with vintage power and award-winning finesse.
