About the MX2 line
MX2 is CAO's double-maduro concept — "twice as nice." It pairs a dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper with a Brazilian maduro binder over a multi-country filler drawn from the Dominican Republic, Honduras, Nicaragua and Peru. The result is a medium-to-full cigar with a sweet, rich, peppery profile: dark chocolate, espresso and sweet earth. The two maduro leaves give it real depth, making it a satisfying after-dinner choice for smokers who love a sweeter, richer maduro.
