Bella Vanilla by CAO

[Presideo]

I picked up a Bella Vanilla the other day b/c they were rather cheap...never had a flavored cigar of CAO quality so I thought it was worth a try....

Unlike you, the vanilla taste wasn't just a hint, but a major overtone...I had the same 'firecracker' taste as you in the end too, though I didn't mind it much. I have to try these again and try to find CAO's other lines of flavored cigars...

The CAO flavored cigars and the Java from Drew Estates are the only two flavored cigars that I smoke, and I smoke them ocassionally, not often. I really like the Moontrance, and the Java, a few times per year.

every once in a while my wife will want a smoke, and the bella is what she likes.

Trying a Moontrace now...it leaves a nice, sweet flavor on my lips, but the actual taste is a bit harsh for something starting off so sweet...

Then again, I just had a Sancho Panza so maybe I didn't get the aftertaste from that out of my mouth before lighting up the Moontrace...guess I gotta buy another one and test it out again...
