Introduced in 2014: The CAO Amazon Basin is made of very unique and hard to find tobacco grown in the Amazon Rain-Forest and harvested just once every three years. Unlike traditional tobacco plantations where the plants are arranged in neat rows, these seeds are hand picked and planted in areas where there is available sunlight.
Once harvested, the leaves are rolled by hand into tubes called carottes and undergo six months of natural fermentation, a technique similar to that of Andullo tobacco. Once fermented, it takes four to six weeks to get them from forest to factory, a process that involves being hand carried to the river, put into canoes and rowed to the mainland, and then driven to the port and shipped to Nicaragua where the cigars are made.
