    Default Camacho 10th Anniversary ~ Torpedo

    Other's reviews (None found, searching the Reviews Forum)

    Smoke: Camacho 10th Anniversary ~ Torpedo
    Drink: Assorted Yuengling products
    Tunes: Paul Simon ~ misc.; Triumph; Styx; KRS-One; King’s X

    Wrapper: Honduran Criollo
    Binder: Honduran Criollo
    Filler: Honduran Criollo
    Draw: Light (The Camacho Draw)
    Burn: ran fine
    Misc: 60+ minutes

    Pre-light: Box Press torpedo. Medium brown with a kind of flat cardboard look texture. Very light musky tobacco scent. Nice sweet tobacco prelight flavor. Ok!, can’t wait now let’s fire it up!



    Light: Easy. Characteristic light Camacho draw.

    1st 3rd: Spicy & sweet at same time. Distinct sweet tobacco notes and a nice woodsy pepper aftertaste. Full body, and medium to full flavor. Unless this thing radically changes, I can tell already, I’m going to be pissed when I get to the end.



    Ash: Loose stack, light gray with little black specs. Holds on for 1 ˝”

    2nd 3rd: Same profile, and same being good! Nice creamy mix of sweet tobacco, woodsy notes and maybe a little less spice now.



    3rd 3rd: More oily now. Still excellent flavor profile. Sweet / spicy & some woodsy now. Heating up a bit now, which bites into the creamy aspect a bit. Excellent.



    Overall impression: Find them, and buy with reckless abandon.

    Thanks bigwhiteash, for allowing me the opportunity to smoke this one!

    I've said it many times, I have yet to meet a Camacho that lets me down. Excellent review as always BW

    I've been looking to try some more Camachos recently and I'll have to add this to the list.

    Nice review!
    Yay! Cigars!

    Default Reuters: Cigar analyst badwhale raises his rating on Camacho to "strong buy."

    "reckless abandon"

    Great review as always, this was my 2nd smoke and I loved it - I'll have to smoke another, go back to my notes and see how my tastes have changed...

    Awesome review Will! Looks like a good stick to me too, I have one of these camachos just waiting to get lit up in the humi, I guess I will just have to make the ultimate sacrifice and try it soon. Roger.
    Just another day at the office!
