General Cigar Company have announced that CAO Arcana Mortal Coil will return to the market August 1st. The cigar was originally launched in February 2021. The Mortal Coil is known for featuring “Andullo,” the oldest tobacco fermentation method of the Dominican Republic.
Ed Lahmann, senior brand manager of CAO cigars said, “The fans of CAO spoke, and we listened. We previously brought back Mortal Coil, yet the fans kept wanting more. So with this year’s release of the blend, we’re showing the fans of CAO that we’re willing to go the extra mile for them.”
The Andullo tobacco is described by General as…
Andullo upon time-honored cultivation and curing techniques for sungrown Habano-seed tobaccos. Instead of traditional bulk fermentation, Andullo tobacco is wrapped tightly in handcrafted palm tree pods known as “yaguas” that are compressed with rope coiled around the pod. This old-world process of fermentation takes approximately two years and transforms the tobacco into rough, leathery-looking leaves with a characteristically thick texture and earthy sweetness.
