Description
The CAO Flathead V660 Carb is one of the bulkiest cigars in the CAO Flathead line. The idea was for the cigars to resemble the engine blocks found in America's classic hot rods. There is undoubtedly a jovial aspect to the theme, but it would be a mistake to dismiss the Flathead as a novelty. The cigar is a gutsy blend that starts with a dark Connecticut broadleaf wrapper, a Cuban-seed binder also grown in Connecticut and a combination of Nicaraguan ligero and Dominican Piloto Cubano tobacco.The name Carb 660 is named after the carburetor of a combustion engine and 660 indicates the length and ring gauge. From the first light, this seriously squared-off cigar takes off with notes of ripe fruit, leather and molasses that only gain intensity as it smokes.
