Wrapper: Honduran Criollo ’98 (4th priming)
Binder: Authentic Corojo
Filler: Honduran Criollo and Piloto Cubano (Dominican)
Toro: 6 x 50
SRP: $6.00
Cigar Coop was the first media source to publish full blend and vitola information on the 2013 Camacho relaunch.
When Camacho relaunched their line in 2013, the Camacho Havana was rebounded and got a new name – the Camacho Criollo. The changes to the new blend are now that this blend features is a fourth priming wrapper instead of a third. The blend now also incorporates Dominican tobacco in the filler.
The Camacho Criollo could be a sleeper in the Camacho relaunch. This cigar had some excellent flavors. The main flavors are earth, pepper, and chocolate. There is a touch of honey sweetness in this cigar. This sweetness starts out subtle in the first half and becomes a little more prevalent in the second half. Flavors start out medium, but progress to full-bodied by the second half. The strength also starts out medium and goes to medium to full in the second half.
While the burn wasn’t bad, it did require a little maintenance to keep straight, and it was prone to flaking. The draw was excellent.
Easily worth a box split in my book.
