CAO Session

CAO is the little, boutique, premium cigar brand that has defied all odds in the premium cigar industry. It started as a dream by the late Cano A. Ozgener, who incorporated his passion for fine cigars along with his passion for family to create the CAO brand. Together they grew CAO from a local favorite to one of the most widely recognized names in the cigar industry. When the family sold the brand to General Cigar in 2007, many had doubts that the brand could thrive under the corporate yoke. The brand was put in the capable hands of Rick Rodriguez, who had been the heir apparent to Partagas Master Blender Benji Menendez. Those first few years were rocky for CAO and Rodriguez, but he’s hit his stride and continues to churn out spectacular new blends for the brand.

CAO Session was blended to be the ideal cigar for any cigar smoker. The filler tobacco combination gives Session it’s bold flavor, while a unique post-fermentation wrapper treatment deepens Session’s flavor and darkens its color. But make no mistake, Session is medium-bodied and highly smokable, perfect for any and every occasion
