CAO Pilon
CAO Pilon from Nicaragua with a Habano wrapper at medium-full strength. It is in the $5-$10 range. Lengths run 5.0 to 7.5 inches; ring gauges span 38 to 60 across 12 sizes. Habano wrappers are generally associated with balanced, pepper-leaning smoke. A medium-full blend adds body without going fully bold. Nicaraguan cigars often feature assertive filler blends and varied wrapper options.
