Description

The CAO America 250th Anniversary celebrates 250 years of American independence with a uniquely all-American blend from CAO Cigars. A modern take on the original CAO America, this release features a striking barber pole wrapper combining U.S.-grown tobaccos, showcasing domestic leaf in a bold, eye-catching format.

Blended entirely with American-grown tobaccos, the cigar delivers a medium-bodied profile that balances natural sweetness with notes of earth, wood, and subtle spice. Produced in limited quantities, the CAO America 250th Anniversary stands as both a tribute to American tobacco and a celebration of the innovation that defines the CAO brand.

Cigar Shape
Robusto
The Robusto is a short Churchill size, traditionally 5 to 5.5 inches by a 50 ring gauge.
Cigar Section
Box-Pressed (Square)
A box pressed cigar is a cigar that has a square shape. Originally, this shape came from the practice of packing round cigars tightly in cardboard boxes which are then compacted using a manual press. The cigars are thus pressed into each other and become a "squarish" or semi-square shape. Today, cigar makers use square shaped molds or a wooden trunk press for their box pressed cigars, achieving a more defined square section.
Cigar Length
5"1/2
This cigar is 5"1/2 inches long, or 139.7 mm.
Origin
USA
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Production of cigars in the United States, once a thriving industry, is now mainly machine made cigars. They are still being produced in the last remaining cigar factory from the 1890s, the JC Newman Cigar factory in Tampa. However, in recent years boutique brands have flourished and are being handmade by select rollers in Miami, Florida.
Cigar Ring Gauge
55
The cigar ring gauge corresponds to the diameter of a cigar, this cigar has a ring gauge of 55, so his diameter is 55/64 inches or 21.84 mm.

Cigar Manufacturer
General Cigars/ST Group
General Cigar Company manufactures premium cigars in several factories located in the Dominican Republic, Honduras, and Nicaragua.

Cigar Wrapper

The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.

USA Connecticut Shade
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
The Connecticut Valley, in the Northeast of the USA, is well known for its bright golden wrapper. Because of a very hot and sunny summer, the tobacco is shade grown to make the leaf more delicate with few veins and even surface. Connecticut Shade wrapper grown in the United States has a mild to medium flavor and a silky quality, making it one of the most expensive and sought-after cigar wrappers in the cigar industry.
Cigar Binder
USA Connecticut
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
USA Connecticut refers to tobacco grown in the Connecticut River Valley, which runs through four New England states. The soil in this area has a glacial origin and produces a tobacco that is known for its distinct, light flavor. USA Connecticut tobacco is either Shade- or Sun-grown.
