A Legacy of Innovation: CAO FASA Sombra
CAO has always been the adventurous type, constantly exploring new corners of the world for unique tobacco. The FASA Sombra showcases this spirit, putting the spotlight on a shade-grown wrapper from Ecuador’s Quevedo region. Appropriately, 'Sombra' is Spanish for 'Shade,' reflecting the story of this special leaf.
Ecuador’s natural, year-round cloud cover provides the perfect shelter for the Sombra. This overcast environment allows the tobacco to grow under indirect light, protected from intense heat. As a result, the leaves become silkier, oilier, and more sophisticated. This organic 'tapado'—or natural shroud—gives the CAO Sombra its refined profile, delivering one of the most memorable and creamy smoking experiences you’ll ever try.

The CAO FASA Sombra features a stunning Ecuadorian Shade wrapper. This elegant leaf houses an exotic Cameroon binder, which encases a core of Dominican Piloto Cubano and Nicaraguan filler tobacco from Jalapa, Estelí, and Condega. Your palate will dance in waves of butter, cream, sweet hay, and almonds throughout the medium-bodied experience. Following the format of previous releases, the line is available in a Toro 6 x 50 and a Gigante 6 x 60.
