A gorgeous looking cigar with a deep dark maduro wrapper. Construction was near perfect. A clip with my v-cutter and I get a small resistance from a pre-light draw. A hint of coffee is tasted. A very nice band, along with a decorative band at the foot.

Taking some advice from forum members (Kreth & T.G), as well as my previous experience with Camacho cigars, I ate a good lunch, as well as having a jelly donut and orange juice at the ready. I decided to pair this with a glass of Maker's Mark also.
Image
It starts off with a woodsy note. This flavor continues for the duration. I'm also getting a hint of coffee. The draw is slightly tight with a decent amount of smoke coming from the draw.
Image
The second 3rd brings about a chocolate note. This cigars is burning a bit slow and I have to keep on it so it does not go out. The draw remains a bit tight.
Image
The final 3rd continues with the woody note mixed with chocolate again. I did not need the jelly donut or the orange juice, but the Maker's Mark did pair quite well. All in all, I enjoyed this cigar and thoroughly enjoyed the bourbon

Thanks for the review. I had one of these over the summer while on the beach in Maine and it was a really good smoke.

Thanks for the review. I was gonna pick one of these up at a local smoke shop (last time i was there they had one, and decided to pass that time). When I got back they where sold out. figures. Lol. As they're not a rare smoke i'm sure I'll find them around again.

Nick,
I find your reviews very informative, but if I may, please try to put the strength/body of the cigar in your reviews. I love your reviews but they would be much better if you would include the strength of the stick. Not complaining, just trying to add a bit of constructive criticism. Your reviews are on par for the most part, but would be excellent if you include the strength.
Keep up the good work,
Andy

Excellent review, and an excellent cigar.
Andy made a great point. This is one of those cigars that lies in the full body, full strength range, and those are hard to find. It's a real short list.
Those are the ones I enjoy the most, this being one of them.
:-)
Why I have never bought a box is beyond me. I just never seem to getting around to smoking them, and I love them.
:-)
