The CAO Flathead V23 celebrates the 100th anniversary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, an iconic car race in France. This limited-edition cigar is inspired by the Ford GT-40, a car that won each race from 1966-1969. It’s a 6” x 60 Gordo with a blend consisting of a Honduran wrapper, Nicaraguan binder, and a mix of Honduran and Nicaraguan fillers. “V23 has the large-ring, box-pressed, full-bodied attributes of its predecessor blends, and that’s where the similarities end. This smoke is about power, for sure, but it’s more about power and finesse. Just as a legendary racecar like the GT40 MK1 had substance and style, so does V23. This is a cigar lover’s cigar because it’s got body and nuance and is a true pleasure to smoke. We’re excited to share V23 with the fans of CAO” said Ed Lahmann, senior brand manager for CAO. Get ready to enjoy a powerful, yet refined smoke with notes of leather, earth, and spice.
