CAO La Traviata

The La Traviata brand began its life at the turn of the 20th century in Cuba or, more precisely, in the tobaccalera Cubana, Argamonte no. 106, in Havana. To this day Tobaccalera Cubana is fondly remembered as a factory that adhered to the traditional principles of Cuban cigar craftsmanship.

Over 100 years later, CAO has resurrected the La Traviata name, abiding closely to its original Cuban roots in presentation and taste. The La Traviata vista harkens back to the era of the pre-nationalization Havana cigar, while the tobaccos utilized are a modern marriage blended with the express purpose of recreating the classic old world Havana flavor profile.

Displaying a sumptuous Colorado-brown Ecudorian wrapper, the cigar entices both the visual sense as well as the olfactory, with a pepper and leather pre-light nose. From the first pull, the cigar bursts with a spicy, rich texture of velvety smoke. The palate is medium to full-bodied, showing a character that is intense but round. Flavors of cedar, anise, and black pepper shine through and softly evolve into a lush and creamy finish.
