The CAO Cameroon Perfecto was designed to celebrate the brand's 30th anniversary. This perfectly rolled 4 x 48 Perfecto is made up of a lacy, oily Cameroon cape and a Nicaraguan under-cape. The ring is adorned with two bands of light green and gold.
The richness and sweetness of this African leaf combines with notes of spice, leather and cocoa to deliver a moderately full-bodied experience. The Cameroon cape strikes a fine balance between power and sweetness.
Raw, the wine reveals notes of gingerbread and brioche. The bottling is easy and very well controlled. It starts with a hint of bitterness that develops into notes of leather and spices.
This cigar accompanied us to the electroclette at the top of the Alpage de la Chaux in Verbier. Fantastic views, electro and raclette, and a CAO Cameroon: what more could you ask for?
Tasting note
Notes
Notes of gingerbread and brioche, not unlike the aromas of cressin (a typical Valais brioche). The cigar becomes stronger and rounder, leading to a more woody, spicy and leathery world.
Pairing
Choose a light, full-bodied red wine such as Gamay Vieille Vigne or Pinot Noir that has been carefully cellared.
