CAO Flathead Speed Shop Habano

General Cigar Co. has introduced the CAO Flathead Speed Shop Habano, a subtler version of the original Flathead, set to hit shelves on February 2.

According to CAO brand manager Cory Beardsley, the Speed Shop keeps the brand’s bold feel but gives smokers a more balanced option. It’s made in Nicaragua with an Ecuador Habano wrapper, a Mexican San Andrés binder, and fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic.

The Speed Shop Habano is available in three box-pressed sizes: V660 (60 x 152mm – 6”, $9.99), Big Block (70 x 178mm – 7”, $10.99), and a new size called Crankshaft (54 x 152mm – 6”, $8.99). Each comes in a 24-count box with an engine-block look.
