In 2007 CAO launched the Vision and it took the cigar world by storm. The cigars were produced by La Aurora and featured one of the best blends that the factory had ever produced. It was the 1st CAO cigar to ever crack Cigar Aficionado’s yearly top 10 list, but it was the packaging that the cigar world couldn’t stop talking about. While the cigars were excellent, they were packaged in these white plastic humidors that had LED lights in them. You’d think someone just reinvented sliced bread! It was groundbreaking packaging at the time and has not seen it’s equal up until the CAO Vision 2020 was introduced. When Rick Rodriguez, CAO’s master blender and brand ambassador, decided it was time to bring the brand back to market he knew you couldn’t do it without making a box that was worthy of the original. However, it required a new blend that would satisfy today’s smokers.
Rick apprenticed and learned everything about tobacco and blending from Partagas’ Benji Mendez. Benji’s favorite wrapper tobacco comes from Cameroon and Rick wanted to make a cigar that honored his mentor. So he started with a blend of choice, multi-region Nicaraguan tobaccos for the filler and an Ecuadorian Sumatra binder. Capping off the blend is the highest quality, toothy looking Cameroon wrapper available. This blend produces a smooth, well-balanced medium bodied cigar with tasting notes of cedar, nuts, coffee, and brown sugar with hints of leather, cream, and pepper. CAO Vision 2020 is a testament to the creativity of Rodriguez and a worthy addition to any humidor.
