On sale at da Page
Petite Robs are $26ish/fiver, free ship.
About as good as it gets these days.

CAO Italia Rob
Eh……….got a fiver cheap……figured it might be a decent yard gar.
Nope……………..…granted it only had 2 months on it, but the acrid taste in the second half, combined with a distinct aroma of ammonia off the head, tells me these are going to have to sit for a least a year or two, before they might become smokeable yard gars. Will not be buying again, even at $1/ea

If it makes you feel better, the CAO Italia was NEVER decent.

The CAO Brasilia is the great one, I think.

I get the Brazillia for $10 or less per 5iver on CB several times a year. One of my favorite cigars especially at the price point.

The Page having another DPG sale.
I got 2 tenners of Le Bijou Pet Robs for $102, delivered.

Pretty good for these days, considering most other places sell them for 35-37/fiver…………….IF they even have them.
One of my favs, and I had to buy a small stash of them to keep myself out of the box I’’ve been resting for a few years now.

I think the CAO Italia is good, and Brazillia, and Nicaragua, and Columbia, but my favorite is CAO America! I think I'll fire one up right now. Anyway I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder or tongue of the beholder. That said I don't have any plans to buy more of any of them anytime soon. I'm all hooked on AF now thanks to Corey and Palama and still have a ton other stock. I would say to anyone who hasn't tried them and thinking of it, give it a go, they're all descent smokes. I am not an expert but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night Herfing
