Thunder Smoke features a Honduran Olancho San Agustin wrapper and a Mexican San Andres binder. However, it’s the filler blend that answers their “We Go Where The Tobacco Takes Us” mantra. With tobacco from Cameroon, Zimbabwe and South Africa, this cigar marks the first time any cigar has featured South African tobacco in the United States.
Ed Lahmann, CAO Brand Manager, said, “With CAO Thunder Smoke, we are pushing the boundaries of cigar making, venturing into uncharted territories to craft an unparalleled smoking experience. Our mantra, ‘We Go Where The Tobacco Takes Us,’ has guided us to innovate and redefine the industry standard. This release is not just a milestone for CAO, but a bold leap forward for the entire cigar world.”
CAO Thunder Smoke offers tasting notes of herbs, hazelnut, cocoa, and raisin. For a drink pairing, look to aged rum, espresso or a stout to complement the unique flavor of this one-of-a-kind cig
