I smoked my first "new" CAO Maduro yesterday while at a BBQ with a bunch of college buddies. I have to say that the blend does taste different than the CAO Anni Maduro, not completely different, but definitely different. These seem to be smoother and yet maintaining the med-full body flavor of the old line.
Nice hints of chocolate, perfect burn and decent complexity all the way to the nub. I will definitely buy more of these than I did of the other line.
