Are these sticks any good? Decent price on CI. Always been curious about this Camacho maduro since most of their cigars are pretty tasty. :-)

I've not had the Corojo Maduro, but I love the regular Corojo's. :-)

How much is CI selling them for? Not that I need another box.

If you're looking for Camacho Corojo Maduros, I think Atlantic
Cigars has a better deal. Box of 25 Monarcas (robusto) for
89.95, plus $5 shipping. I personally prefer the Corojos in
the Corojo wrapper, but the SLR's in Maduro.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm like you, Corojo's for those and the SLR Maduros

I snagged a box Corojo Maduros in the Petite Corona size for a super cheap price a little while back and have found them to be pretty solid little sticks.
Now that they have been sitting in my humi for a little bit I think the Maduro quality of the wrapper is really shining through, and the filler appears to have mellowed out a little bit.
I think these do have a bit of a hybrid taste because you get the pepper and spice qualities that the Corojo line has, and then the maduro wrapper gives it that sweet/chocolate quality. I think the smaller ring gauges will perform better than the larger ring gauges.

All that said… I think the SLR Maduro is better if you are just looking for an all-around nice maduro.
