V554 Camshaft One of the best CAO'S. Rich and complex flavor. Excellent draw burnash and finish. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft A nice smoke with an easy draw. Consistent flavor throughout the burn. When you just don’t have the time for the Flathead 660. This is the nice alternative. 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft Love the entire flattop series. Being a Harley rider it could not be more perfect. Excellent burn and draw. I would call it more medium that bold but tastes vary. One of my go to sticks. 5 5 1

V554 Camshaft They says it has a deep flavor but I found this cigar to be smooth and easy to smoke. Dark and greasy looking wrapper very nice. Flavors of chocolate mixed with other light spices. Will definitely buy again. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft A delicious smoke. Easy draw with a razer sharp burn. There was a nice woody flavor with a little bit of spice on the finish. Puts out a really nice amount of smoke 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft 30 years smoking all brands and all levels of quality cigars. This one is the best cigar in it's price range in my opinion. Ordered it for fun (I'm a Harley nut) and was impressed. Try 5 and you'll be ordering it by the case. 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft Loved it! Definitely would buy again. Very rich and dark tasting and even though I don't like the box press this one was an exception. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft Great smoke. The flavor was peppery and it had a great draw. Great smoke output. 4 5 1

V554 Camshaft The cao flathead is overall a fine smoke.i had some issues with the construction.I got these free with purchase of brazil line. 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft Good flavor. Nice draw and just like its bigger brother the 660 with alot less burn time 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft I really like this cigar however I recently purchased my usual CAO Gold and was supposed to get 5 Flatheads as a promotion. Instead 5 Punch cigars were substituted. I was not and am not happy with the substitution because I did not get what I ordered! THE RATING IS NOT REALLY VALID SINCE I DIDN'T GET THE CIGARS !! 1 5 1
V554 Camshaft I wouldn't know I never got them with my order. Some punch signature cigars were substituted and I'll not suggest them to anyone. Thanks for nothing 1 5 1
V554 Camshaft Great construction great draw. Very decent flavor with a medium spice by the 2nd third. Never overpowers the other flavors. 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft Enjoyable full flavored smoke. Med to full strength. Rich tobacco flavored with good draw and burn. If you like this you should also try spark plug from this line. Great short smoke. 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft If you like a delicious medium to full strength smoke that's perfectly constructed in a dark oily Maduro wrapper I would highly recommend the CAO Flathead. Consistently fantastic! Comes in a cool box too! 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft I forgot how good this one is. I got a 5-pack during a sale and I had to try one immediately. I bought them to put in my “good” humidor box where I save them for some special occasion but it will be hard to keep from dipping into there. For a medium to full-bodied cigar it is surprisingly smooth but still bold. I taste chocolate and spice in there but I haven’t identified the rest of the flavors yet. The ashes stay on for a very long time and it is well packed. It has a firm draw without being unpleasant. I know everyone’s taste is different but for me this is a delicacy of a smoke and is in my top 10 for sure. Maybe top five. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft The V 554 is a very well constructed and even smoking cigar. A bit on the strong side of the taste spectrum. 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft 770 ,660 and now the 554 CAO cigars are my favorite- 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft Good burning cigar with a strong taste 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft excellent smoke , 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft Great flavor awesome smoke. Great draw . But the cap was split and the outside wrapper fell off 2/3 the way through . 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft I adore the Flathead line. Personal fave is the 660, as it seems to last forever. The 770 is just s bit too big for my tastes. The 554 is an awesome, more subtle version of the 660. Still slow-burning and long lasting, but with a somewhat tighter and more focused taste and smoke output. All the regular Flatheads have a severe box press shape, which I have grown to love. They are perfect for a punch cut. High pleasure, and high value too. Rick Rodriguez has nailed it here! 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft the draw some times is tight some times you to light twice 3 5 1
V554 Camshaft We found this to be definitely more on the full side of the spectrum. Not a quick premium either. This puppy will burn down to the nub this a constant leather slight spice. Great draw. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft This is a great stick. Yes a little pricey but a great constant slow burn. We found this to be more on the strong side. So if you have some time sir back and enjoy!! 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft Really been enjoying these. Got a 5 pack to try them out and they’ve become my newest favorite after looking for something cheaper than what I was smoking daily. Wrapper is nice and oily the way I like it. Work great for a punch cut, which is very convenient for traveling since my punch is already on my keychain and a few of my lighters. Taste is outstanding with some really nice chocolate flavors throughout. Smoke is nice and thick and I actually really like the squareness of the box press as it holds well in the hand and gives nice good surface area to hold with my mouth so I can still use my hands while doing things around the yard/garage. Haven’t pulled the trigger on a box yet, but will definitely do so when I deplete my stash a little. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft one of the best cigar in it's price range 3 5 1
V554 Camshaft I think I found my new favorite go to cigar. Great draw construction and flavor. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft Very sorry to report but my absolute favorite cigar of all time (Flatheadl) have since dropped to the point that I may need to find a new cigar...not happy. Since last year when they reached #2 on Cigar Aficionado the rush on them spiked and the cigar has fallen. I get about 3 or 4 out of every box of 24 that have burn problems such as the center of the cigar has a hole like a chimney and it burns like a hot fire. I have complained to JR Cigar a few times and it was like talking to my cat...nothing! 2 5 1
V554 Camshaft This cigar just feels right - firm well-packed and I like the box-pressed shape. Great taste from first puff to last stayed lit even when I thought I'd let it go out. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft Big bold and full of flavor. I love all of the Cao brand but this one stands alone! 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft Awesome cigar with awesome flavor. A great pairing with your morning coffee or your evening bourbon. 5 5 1

V554 Camshaft Flavor is good quality of tobacco outstanding. I am not a box press fan really don't like them however this smoke can change your mind. 4 5 1
V554 Camshaft Only had one so far but if they are all as good these will be bought by the box. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft My friend and I went to a cigar lounge and we both pick this one up as a single. We came straight out of humidor and sat there with our cigars. He clipped his end off I hole punched mine. I had a good draw his was a little off. We both had to relight in the 1st third and again in the 2nd third. We both like a bold cigar and this seemed to fit. Good construction. Both had a one side favoritism burn so played catch up from halfway through the first to halfway through the 2nd third. Spicy on the last third. My friend didn't get to his last third it died again. I got two puffs into last third and it went out also. Good construction no peeling cracks or stems poking out. Paid $8.50. Can't say I would by this again. Both enjoyed the 660 though. That's why we gave the 554 a try. 3 5 1
V554 Camshaft This is everything I like in a cigar-- beautifully constructed bold but smooth and full of flavor. You really ca't go wrong with this one! One of the most enjoyable cigars I've smoked in quite some time. 5 5 1

V554 Camshaft These Flatheads are a really nice smoke. Not too harsh. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft Yuck. I've had excellent Flathead 554's, but this box sucks. The cigars were dry and burned fast. 1 5 1
V554 Camshaft At first I thought suspect in construction but when I smoked this beauty it was great. Nice burn. Very consistent. Flavor was great. A lot of smoke, which I love. Smoked a couple just to make sure. Definitely a keeper in my humidor. This one is most definitely in my top 5. 5 5 1

V554 Camshaft It’s a good cigar at a reasonable price. Have purchased a few boxes of these over the last few years. Every stick burns well and puts out plenty of smoke. Love the aggressive box press as well. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft This is my "house stock" cigar choice, though I enjoy a wide variety of cigars, this quality cigar with it's medium to heavy tastes, excellent draw and ash always satisfies.

V554 Camshaft This cigar is a wonderful smoke. Easy draw all the way. I usually get a good coupon for 25 to 30% off on their 5-packs. Need to use a punch to get the best draw. Try them and see for yourself. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft This is cigar has depth, on the stronger side, and if you work it right, it can last hours. One of my favorites. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft Not a fan 3 5 1
V554 Camshaft The Flathead was once my go to cigar, so I decided to pick up a 5 pack only to find them to be a complete disappointment. The filler was loose full of voids with chunks of hard crap in it, every one of the five had extreme runs along the warper. BUMMER ! 1 5 1

V554 Camshaft Bought a single to try and let me tell you it's an amazing smoke. 5 5 1
V554 Camshaft If you've ever had trouble tasting the flavor of cigars, try this one. The first third is full of dark roasted notes. Dark chocolate, dark, bold espresso.
