CAO Maduro

TC6-Hi-Res

Be warned. This may be my worst review in terms of video and audio quality. Here’s the story… The other night I was helping run a local cigar shop, Habana Cigars, and got a little bored. I figured I’d do a quick review using my MacBook iSight webcam. What resulted was the masterpiece video below. Maybe for future reviews like this, I can use an external microphone and adjust the lighting a bit. OR, I can abandon this idea completely. Let me know your thoughts, I can take it.

The CAO Maduro is a decent little medium to lower full bodied cigar. The flavors didn’t wow me or change a lot, but it did keep me relaxed for the duration. Overall the flavors were good. See my thoughts in this 8 minute video.

How can they let a hippie like yourself on the internet. I just can’t believe it. I think you should get banned for life. Wonder if I can start a “I Hate Tom” cigar club. Just appalling that you made us sit through that annoying video.

I am canceling my internet service, I just can’t bear to watch any more.

LMAO – I don’t think the lighting was bad, volume doesn’t matter much because people should have a volume control on their speakers ;)

Hey Tom, Quality not so bad as per your advance warning. Maybe a few rough edges can be sanded off if you keep doing it this way, but pretty good. Enjoyed the review.

Quality wasn’t that bad. It was a pretty good review too.

Tom, I always enjoy your efforts. I have smoked the CAO Maduro and your assessment of the cigar rang true to me. It was my understanding that it was not a good idea to smoke inside a humidor. Do you have any thoughts on that? Thanks Tom……

Hey Tom. Nice review. The quality was not as good as the normal Tom and Ed video reviews, but like others said it wasn’t as bad as you warned. It was weird to see you do the review standing up though. Keep up the good work!

Stickman – I limited smoking in the humidor to only during filming. I agree filling the place up with smoke may not be a good idea. Basically I did what Ed and I do in his shop. The entire shop is the humidor so we only smoke inside for short periods of time.

Everyone else – Thanks for the feedback. Perhaps I did overreact in how bad the quality is. We’ll see how future ones turn out.
