I'm quickly becoming a big fan of all things Camacho. This cigar was no exception. A gorgeous dark maduro wrapper, and a nice firm quality construction. No visible flaws on this one.
Image
This starts out with a nice strong pepper flavor. Tons of thick chewy smoke coming from a nice easy draw. The smoke is sticking to the top of my tongue. This is pairing great with my morning coffee.
Image
A very strong white ash. Cigar is burning nice and slow and I'm enjoying every draw. The strong pepper flavor continues to blast my taste buds.
Image
About half way through, the pepper starts to diminish, and a chocolate espresso flavor comes through. The sun is also breaking through the clouds and it looks like it's going to be a great day.
Image
As I get towards the end, all the flavor has gone. Just smooth tobacco flavor remains. Even though the flavor has gone, the vitamin N kicks up a notch. I needed to get up and walk around for a bit.
Image
I would consider this a full bodied cigar. Smoke time was about an hour and a half. Strong pepper is what I really enjoyed.

Thanks for a nice review and photo's Nick. I've burned a number of the Corojo Monarca' in the past (and recently, a 1962 Belicoso which did nothing for me). Really have enjoyed the Monarca' though.
Guess I'll have to stop by the B&M later this week and purchase a SLR maddy rothchild:-)

There is also the elusive Cajones and the Bad to the Bone rolled for Outlaw Cigars. Older blends which may or may not have changed are the banded and unbanded Diploma and Diploma Maduro. And the always tasty Corojo Candela.
