MEGA Review: Camacho Corojo 10th Anniversary Torpedo

[buzz]

Taste 2nd Third:
Oily is still there, but mellowed. Woodsy and creamy sweet tobacco. Damn, these are nice. Medium body, full flavor.	Spice went away as expected, still has that woody sweetness which is great. Wrapper is ticking me off. The moon doesn't look any bigger than it normally does...
Just wonderful. Nicely-fermented/aged tobacco. The wrapper is a bit fragile.	Woodsy and sweet.
Had to can this one. Kid woke up with a bad dream. Dad duty calls.	I ended up with visitors and had to abandon the smoke for a bit, resulting in a relight. After that the burn was uneven with some tunneling.
Leathery still and a very tiny sweet taste.	Spice went way down. But flavor was still pretty good. Same as the first but slightly sweeter.
More of the same.	A nice earthy taste has developed to replace the leather and spice. Though the taste has become slightly more creamier now. Still copious amounts of thick smoke pouring out. I love it!
Spice has faded a bit. The cigar has changed, and it seems like it's getting sweet. Incredibly smooth - no harshness at all. The cigar itself gives when I squeeze it, which knocks some construction points off for me, and the burn is only kind of even, but not to the point where I have to fix it. It's smoking like a mess, but the taste is awesome. I'm puffing like a chimney at this point, not wanting to give this part of the cigar up.	The cap during this section of the cigar took a real turn for the worse, it looked like i was one of those guys who just chews the smoke. The burn is still a bit uneven and the cigar is requiring more attention than any of the previous MR5 ladies. I don't like my girls needy. The cigar has gotten a bit more spicy and for me the sweetness has gone away to be replaced by a harsh taste that I really don't care for. I am not hating the cigar at this point but it is certainly not my favorite.
Pretty much the same as the 1st. A little stronger with a retro-hale. Nothing out of this world, but a good clean smoke.	Developing a nice oily wood and leather taste. Very smooth and earthy.

Taste 3rd Third:
More of the same deliciousness. Woodsy / earthy sweet, creamy tobacco with some background oily bitterness for balance.	Started to got hot and harsh, wrapper is flailing around like an orangutan. I probably smoked this last third too fast.
Cops amounts of smoke, but with lots of flavor. Leather aftertaste.	Strong leather like my old Levis belt minus the sweat LOL.
Spice picked up again in the 3rd. More of a bite to it then there was earlier. Hints of leather came out.	Not much changed still a nice cigar.
The spice returned in the final third and became the dominate taste. Though once there was less than 3/4 in. left, a bit of harshness developed.	Spice is back - though not as prevalent. Loooooong finish. Seemed like this part of the cigar took just as long as the first two thirds combined. The binding is coming apart, I'm afraid that if I put the cigar down at this point, it will completely explode, but it's very good.
The taste of Irene to me has gotten pretty harsh, the spice I was enjoying has taken a backseat and now the lady has turned into something I don't want to have any longer of a relationship with, I find I am missing Halle quite a bit at this point. It is time unfortunately to break it off with Irene, we had a few good times but unfortunately her neediness and harsh attitude has gotten worse and I don't believe counseling will help us.	More of the same. I like it, but very one dimensional.
Great cigar. Fairly consistent from start to finish with lot's of wood, peat, and earth. Wish I had a nice single malt to go with this!
