I have the cig. bands for tha CAO cap but I don't know the answer to the question,which CAO Cigar was awarded the #1 rating in the world, and in the process, was the only cigar to tie the legendary Trinidad Fundadore from Cuba?
thanks for your help.

Didn't that offer expire some months ago?

I believe it was the extreme lancero.
But yes, I believe that promo is over.

Nashville, June 7, 2002:

C.A.O. Cigars are once again at the top of the list of the world’s best cigars. The C.A.O. Cameroon and Brazilia lines were ranked #1 and #2 in the world, according to the June 2002 issue of Cigar Aficionado magazine, regarded as the Bible of the premium cigar world.

The C.A.O. Cameroon received the highest rating (‘90’ - “OUTSTANDING”) awarded to a Churchill sized cigar and was described as, “..a nearly perfect specimen of Cameroon.”

FYI - Yes, that promotion ended well over a month ago. We are currently completely 'sold out' of all CAO 'Double-Exposure' Caps (as per our 'swag' page)...

Do check back later this month as we will have a brand new 'swag' promo coming soon. 😉

Jon - Nice to see ya Bro!
