    Tonight I had my first CAO Italia. The MX2 blows it away IMHO. Although the Italia is NOT a dog rocket.
    Both decent smokes but the MX2 wins the battle hands down for me.

    I told you this was the smallest review ever.


    No - the "smallest review ever" would be:

    CAO MX2 - Love it!

    CAO Italia - Hated it!


    -or-

    CAO MX2 -

    CAO Italia -

    I have only tried the Brazil and based on this post, I went out to my B&M and got an MX2 and the Italia.

    Probably smoke those sometime this week.

    Had a great evening with Tim Ozgener from CAO - smoked a LX2.

    A quick review of the LX2...

    LX2 =

    I love the maduros and thus the MX2 has become a staple. Found a box of MX2 Robustos for cheap on famous smoke's cigar monster early oone morning so I was thrilled.

    I just picked up a LX2 couple weeks ago. Letting it get to my preferred humidity before breaking it out though...maybe tonight.

    Sound like my experience with Camacho... Only one or two cigars in that line I'm even in the least bit interested in...
