    Thanks for the heads up!

    Avo Classics are my favorite and so I ordered 2 samplers that come with CAO Golds (similar?), and then several singles including a CAO Black, Rocky Patel CT, Ave Maria, Jaime Garcia RE, and La Perla Habana Black Pearl Rojo as these were all recommended as a cheaper (box <$100 shipped) alternative to the Avos.

    I didn't find it to be the most powerful, but the burning sensation on my lips made me think someone dipped it in Tabasco Sauce. Not an enjoyable experience for me.
    Mr. Simpson, don't you worry. I saw an episode of Matlock in a bar last night. The sound was down, but I think I got the gist of it.

    CAO Gold is a nice mild, the Black is medium and fantastic. You might look at CI's CAO Dream Team sampler. 2 each Black, Black VR, Italia, Brazilia, and MX2. My humble opinion, I haven't had a bad CAO yet

    Any of the sticks from the Paul Garmirian Gourmet Symphony 20 Series, can hurt you, especially on an empty stomach. These are my number one favorite cigars, nothing else comes close. I especially love the Connoisseur, Belicoso & the Salomon. If I had to pick one, it would be the Connoisseur.
    Of all the things I have lost in my lifetime, I miss my MIND the most!

    For me, it was a Tatuaje Reserva Cojonu 2003.
    It didn't make me ill, but I certainly began to feel very uncomfortable about 2/3's the way in.
    Had to put it down for a while.

    I love a strong stick, so not many sticks get me nicotine sick anymore but oddly enough... a mojito flavored stick did me in a few years ago

    LFD DL's in the larger ring gauges can lay a whooping if you're not careful!
