Midnight Reserve Maduro

The CAO Surplus Maduro Toro presents a darker, more grounded side of the brand’s portfolio, combining everyday accessibility with the rich character Maduro enthusiasts look for in a reliable humidor staple. Wrapped in a deep, oily Mexican San Andrés Maduro leaf, the cigar carries an understated presentation that leans classic rather than flashy. The bundle packaging keeps the focus on value and consistency, while the Toro format offers an ideal balance of burn time and flavor concentration. From first glance, the Surplus Maduro signals a straightforward smoking experience built around flavor, construction, and dependable craftsmanship.


Honduran Maduro Craftsmanship

Handcrafted in Honduras for CAO, the Surplus Maduro Toro utilizes a Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper layered over an Ecuadorian Sumatra binder and Dominican Olor fillers. The blend was designed to deliver a richer, medium-to-full-bodied profile while maintaining the smooth draw and consistency expected from CAO’s larger premium portfolio.

Construction is notably solid for a bundle cigar. The wrapper carries a dark sheen with minimal veins, while the Toro 6×50 vitola provides an even combustion rate and comfortable smoke output. The draw remains steady throughout the session, producing dense clouds and a firm ash with very little maintenance required. Despite its value-oriented packaging, the Surplus Maduro performs with the refinement of a more premium-priced everyday smoke.


Flavor Profile

The CAO Surplus Maduro Toro delivers a medium-to-full-bodied profile centered around earth, espresso, and dark sweetness.

  • Initial notes: Dark cocoa, black coffee, charred cedar, and a touch of black pepper
  • Mid-palate notes: Espresso bean, roasted nuts, earth, and subtle molasses sweetness
  • Subtle/lingering notes: Baking spice, leather, toasted wood, and lingering bittersweet chocolate

The Toro format allows the San Andrés wrapper to remain the focal point throughout the smoke, giving the cigar a dense, flavorful character without becoming harsh or overpowering.
