CAO Ships Amazon Basin Daggers to Stores

June 14, 2026 By Matthew Tabacco

CAO has announced it shipped the Amazon Basin Daggers to retail stores. Amazon Basin Daggers are returning to retail for a limited time, delivering the brand’s legendary rainforest blend in a compact 4 x 38 format.

Engineered around the rare Brazilian Bragança leaf, Daggers deliver the same exotic profile as the original Amazon Basin but are built for shorter smoking windows. The Bragança tobacco is grown on unspoiled land in the Amazon and harvested just once every three years, making this release a priority for those seeking a rare tobacco experience. 

“Amazon Basin fans are some of the most passionate in the cigar world, and we know how fast the larger sizes disappear,” said Cory Beardsley, brand manager for CAO. “Daggers are back for the people who missed the original drop or for those who want the Bragança profile but don’t have an hour and a half to commit to a Toro. It’s the same blend and the same intensity, just built to fit a shorter smoking window.”
Handcrafted at STG Estelí, the blend features a hearty Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, a Nicaraguan binder, and a filler of Dominican, Colombian, and the signature Brazilian Bragança tobaccos.

CAO Amazon Basin Daggers are packaged in five-count packs and will be available nationwide starting in June. CAO Amazon Basin Daggers measures 4 x 38 and carries an MSRP of $24.99 per pack of five.
