Description

The CAO Pilón Corona utilizes a historic fermentation method involving small, round pilóns. Unlike modern rectangular pilóns, these compact stacks generate less heat, extending fermentation time. This process reduces ammonia and sugar levels in the tobacco, enhancing combustion. The CAO blending team applied this technique to create a cigar with oak, spice, woodsy, and sweet flavor notes, alongside creamy undertones.

CAO Pilón Corona Construction and Blend

Measuring 5½ x 44, the CAO Pilón Corona features an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper. The binder and filler combine Nicaraguan and Honduran tobaccos, selected for balanced combustion and flavor delivery. The medium-bodied profile begins with cedar, earth, and leather, transitioning to subtle spice, coffee, and mild sweetness during the smoking experience.

Performance and Accessibility

The Pilón Corona maintains an even burn with a smooth draw and firm ash. Its medium strength and evolving flavor profile make it suitable for both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers exploring the CAO Pilon line.
