CAO Amazon Basin

Amazon Basin is CAO's rainforest experiment: Bragança leaf—harvested and fermented with painstaking care—plays the starring role, folded into a multinational filler and finished beneath a medium‑to‑dark Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper with a Nicaraguan binder. The smoke leans medium–full, opening on raisin‑like, stewed‑fruit sweetness and creamy texture before settling into earth, toasted oak and coffee/cocoa; black pepper and cedar nudge the final third. Construction typically shows an open draw and steady transitions, and the twisted tobacco‑stem band and limited batches underline the line's uncommon ingredient and small‑run nature.
