Smoke: Camacho Room 101 ~ 213
Drink: Water ; Yuengling Lager Light
Tunes: The Doors ~ LA Woman ; Dio ~ Holy Diver

Wrapper: Semilla 101
Binder: Honduran / Dominican
Filler: Honduran / Dominican
Draw: Light / medium
Burn: Excellent
Misc: 45-60min

Pre-light: Nice corona size. Excellent construction with triple cap. Medium brown wrapper and small veins. Musky sweet tobacco scent, and a sweet tobacco taste on PL cut



Light: Easy. Nice light to medium draw

1st 3rd: Spicy, woodsy and a medium body. I’m only getting a mild to medium flavor. The spice is dominant right now. It has some minor oil and leather notes. A pepper type spice taste.



Ash: Great burn. Nice layered ash, medium gray. Holds on for about 1 ¼”



2nd 3rd: What I call a “dry” flavor profile. Spicy is less now, and more oily with light leather. Can’t say this is really doing it for me, but not too bad. Medium to light body with light flavor.



3rd 3rd: <yawn> Mostly the same. Again, not too bad, but I’m not impressed. Spice has died down leaving the oil tastes. Mostly oil now with a light body.



Overall impression: Read the review…Maybe Room 102 is more kickin’?

Holy Diver - what a cigar! Ronnie James Dio... wow. I'm old.

No chocolaty goodness here? There's a local shop sponsoring an event featuring Camacho blends. I would like to meet Christian Eiroa, but really... wtf... I know, I know, he flew all the way from Esteli. I bet his arms are tired. <sigh>

Nice review BW. Sorry to have troubled you.

Thanks for the review.
I have a pair of them sitting in my box.
I'll wait till a night when I'm pissed drunk & can't tell good from bad.
