The CAO Surplus Maduro Gigante is a bold, value-focused cigar that brings CAO’s blending style into an everyday 6" × 60 format. Handmade in Honduras, the Surplus Maduro features a dark Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper over an Ecuadorian Sumatra binder and mixed filler tobaccos. The result is a satisfying medium-to-full-bodied cigar that delivers plenty of richness without the price point typically associated with premium large-ring-gauge cigars.
From the first draw, expect rich notes of dark cocoa, espresso, wood, and spice, backed by a subtle natural sweetness from the Maduro wrapper. As the cigar develops, deeper roasted flavours emerge alongside touches of black pepper and earthy tobacco. The large 60-ring-gauge format helps keep the profile balanced while producing a generous amount of smoke and a long, leisurely smoking experience.
At 6" × 60, the CAO Surplus Maduro Gigante is an excellent choice for smokers who enjoy bigger cigars with a darker, richer flavour profile. Its combination of Mexican San Andrés tobacco, satisfying strength, and approachable price makes it particularly well suited as an everyday Maduro or an affordable addition to the humidor for fans of CAO.
