CAO Italia Cigars

CAO Italia is one of the most distinctive blends in the CAO portfolio, created to showcase the bold, rarely-seen character of Italian-grown cigar tobacco. When the line debuted in the early 2000s, it immediately stood out for its use of premium Italian Habano leaf cultivated in the Benevento region—a tobacco known for its naturally rich, earthy depth. This unique filler is combined with Nicaraguan and Peruvian tobaccos and finished with a dark Honduran wrapper, resulting in a full-bodied cigar that pushes past traditional profiles. CAO Italia quickly earned a loyal following for its robust flavor, hearty complexity, and its celebration of an unexpected tobacco origin, carving out a distinct identity in the world of premium cigars.
