Italy has been widely heralded as the producer of some of the world’s finest wines and cuisine; however, it had been largely overlooked as a source of premium cigar tobacco until the launch of CAO Italia. Grown exclusively for CAO, the Italian Habano seed used for this exciting cigar was originally brought to Italy from Cuba almost 50 years ago. Cultivated in the Benevento region of the southern portion of the boot, between Rome and Naples, the Italian Habano tobacco lends an incredible earthy sweetness to the cigar’s robust, full-bodied flavor.

Featuring an old-world trunk press that is far more elaborate and time-con-suming than today’s methods, the delicate process takes place over a 24-hour period, beginning when each wooden trunk press is closed.

The clamps are then released, each cigar is turned, and pressure is applied evenly to the other side, resulting in a uniquely pronounced, boxy-square shape. These artisanally shaped cigars command attention and are a must-have for the true CAO enthusiast.
