You must have had a bad stick.  I smoked one with no burn problems nor draw problems.  I've had the Brazilia and Gold as well and I'd have to say that the Italia is my favorite. I'm still a noob so I can't fully distinguish all the aromas yet, but I did notice the nutty flavor.  I paired it with a Starbucks french roast with cream and a bit of sugar and it tasted like I was smoking candy. It left a long lingering flavor on my palate.  The construction was also top notch.  It was filled to the brim and felt heavy in my hand, but as I experienced, a nice draw.

I'm surprised you didn't like it. I've smoked a few in Piccolo size and I loved them!

I liked CAO cigars when I was first getting into cigars, since then they just don't appeal to me. Chalk it up to evolving tastes I guess.
