Having never tried a Camacho, I was intrigued to try this one. I received it 6 days ago and opted to let it rest from its trip before I tried it.
I sat down with my usual glass of Riesling and prepared for the event. The wrapper of this cigar was absolutely beautiful. It was smooth, firm, and very nicely constructed. The label added a real touch of class to the appearance. I usually clip my cigars, but I opted to use a 1/4" punch for this since it wasn't very long.
At first light, the aroma was pleasant, almost like a sweet tea. From that point on, this proved to be one of the most complex cigars I've ever encountered. I got so many flavor changes, I almost couldn't wait for my next puff to see what it would be!
The draw was absolutely perfect, as was the burn. It maintained a firm white ash for atleast 1 1/2 inches....even while playing tug with an 80 lb Lab puppy! It probably would have hung on longer, but I knocked it off at that point...and the ash was so firm I almost wished I had waited just to see how long it would hold.
It started out toasty and leathery with a slight hint of pepper that remained throughout the cigar. Then it changed to butter, then a hint of coffee, then to a buttered popcorn, then to a butter/oak combo. About halfway through, it really started happening! There were hints of carmel, a bit of floral, more oak, some coffee/espresso, cocoa, cashew, even a hint of orange! and mint! It even (don't laugh) at one point reminded me of fresh corn on the cob! It ended up a savory, earthy, toasty flavor that left me satisfied, but I wouldn't have complained if it had been a Toro!!! The wrapper maintained its integrity to the very end. This was an outstanding, relaxing, and totally enjoyable smoke.
If this is what Camacho is about, then sign me up for the first box!!!! I don't nub many smokes, but I took this one down until I nearly had to put on sunscreen! Christian, whatever you folks did, KEEP DOING IT!
