Well, if I was going to do a flavored, not sure a CAO would be my first choice. I think their MX2 and Blacks are ok but think their flavored sticks are poo.

It may not sit well, but if you are looking for a flavored then maybe something in the Acid line would do? Used to actually like the Opulence 3's for a while until I woke up one day and suddenly my taste buds decided a new route was in order. Thought they were the bomb and some of my friends still love them.

As for draw issues. They may need to rest a bit in your humi to calm down and open up. Your dealer may keep them a bit wet or something and the sticks need to stabilize to the correct humidity and will make you happy. You can always stab them with a poker if this is a problem.

But in any case, smoke what you like and enjoy.

let me know what you think
First and Foremost, Welcome to the Asylum...

Second, I would say that most all the flavored cigars I have had have not been "impressive" smokes. That being said, We all have different tastes when it comes to cigars. As for your draw problems, let me echo Jeff...

I would wager that this is the issue, seeing as you are new-ish to the world of 'gars I'll echo everyone in saying proper humidity is key...
