General Cigar Co. To Launch CAO 60 Torque

The limited edition smoke called “Torque” will debut as the biggest in the CAO lineup with a ring gauche of 60. The blend is made with Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos of different primings, with a Nicaraguan Habano binder and an Honduran Habano wrapper.

Rick Rodriguez said, “With 60, it was either go big or go home, and of course we went big with the blend. This cigar is equivalent to revving the engine of a classic muscle car. It’s bold, it demands attention and when you light up a Torque, you’re in for a great ride. We hope that our fans enjoy Torque as much as we enjoyed creating the cigar for them.”

CAO 60 Torque comes in a tin, which holds eight Torque cigars and will sell for an SRP of $100, until the limited release is sold out. CAO 60 Torque began shipping to retailers this week and is handmade at STG Esteli in Nicaragua.
