CAO Flavours Earth Nectar Petit Corona

You could tell that the wine flavor was on the wrapper. it burned even and stayed smooth .

I liked this of all the CAO Flavors, it tasted sweet with cocoa and a hint of rasin. Still not as good as a Acid or Drew Estate.

Seeing as I love certain flavored cigars, this cigar was great! Good draw and burn, a real treat

A very light flavoring with an, ironically, earthy aftertaste. The tobacco smoke had a charred wood flavor and the whole of it burned quite well. Was good but a bit too sweet for me.

If you like wine, or possibly drink wine with your mild cigar, then this is the stick for you. I grab one of these out of my wife's sampler just to try it since I liked the Eileens Dream so much. This one has great everything, and I am sure if I liked wine I would have loved this cigar. I don't so I didn't.

Generally I have been pleased with the CAO line. I'm not usually one for a flavored smoke, but I tried the Moontrance, and was plesantly surprised. This led me to a sampler pack, to try all of the flavors. The Earth Nectar was the first. It looked and smelled great, and burned very, very well. However, I only briefly noticed the wine like flavor - and it passed quickly. Most of the time it tasted dirty and bitter. I hope the others in the line are better.

My first experience with this cigar left me feeling like I had eaten a basket of fruit. I did not really care for it. Now that a few of these have been aging in a coolerdor for half a year, I thought I'd try again. This time the flavors were more muted and seemed to give a better aroma. I don't recommend buying these unless you can let them sit a few months at least. The construction is near flawless though.

Good draw. Good smoke. Good construction. I am still trying to develop my pallate, but when smoking this cigar I just enjoyed the overall taste. I tried to disect the flavours, but in the end I just sat back and enjoyed it. Well worth the money.

Wierd flavors here. the tart flavors get into the corners of the back of your mouth and make you drool like pavlov's dog. Not a bad cigar, and it is well constructed like any CAO....but it is wierd. One was enough for me.

I poured myself a nice glass of wine and light the cigar. Half way through the cigar I was drinking the wine to try and cover up the awful taste of the cigar. It had a nutty undistinct flavor. Will not try this one ever again. It did however look good and burned even all the way through just like a good CAO does.

Well made cigar, with nice draw and even burn. The CAO cigars in general all have nice, consistent construction. The cigar was mild, but the flavors, I think, were too ambitious. I could taste some nuttiness, but they were too muddled with a tartness (I guess the Chianti) and not distinct enough to be enjoyed.

After reading the other review here, I thought this would be the best of the sampler. Since this is the first I tried, I'm not sure. However, as a fan of CAO's cigars, this one let me down. Very nicely wrapped with a ribbon and cedar-colored paper, although it was secured with Scot h tape. I didn't get the Chianti at all. Lots of flowery notes, some honey and a little cocoa show up, despite the bitterness of the cigar in general. The wrapper leaf ended with a point directly over the center of the cigar, lengthwise, so when it burned (unevenly) to that point, it started to come unwrapped.

the taste of chianti is remarkable, it is an enjoyable smoke - hats off to CAO again
