Camacho

The camaro show · 09-01-2019, 09:30 PM

So I am taking advantage of the cigar page fiver sale and need to stock up a little Camacho. I have had the triple maduros and liked them a lot but the new Barrel aged ones seem pretty good if you only were gonna buy one more fiver what ones would you go with?

So this isn't about Hector Macho?

No experience with any other Comacho, Chayse, sorry I am of no help.

I’d say give it a shot Chayse. If you find out you don’t like them, they can become the cigars you give friends when they come over. Or better yet, donate to the troops here.

I haven’t smoked much of the current line from them. Always liked the corojo wrapper. Now the old blends, those were all good. Smoking a Maduro petit corona right now.

Criollo is my favorite blend by Camacho, I'd recommend that one for sure.

Camacho is a shadow of its former self--those old corojos were _so_ good.

The Barrel Aged are the best of the current bunch imho--but not in the same league as the old corojos.

Chayse, a little background for you. Camacho used to be a family operation that grew tobacco and rolled cigars. They were one of the first cigar companies to market through the internet, even before the web that is dominant now. (Google USENET) They were known for what were very strong cigars for their time. But, they sold out to one of the big companies. So, I don’t know what you get today. Smoke what you like. The son in the old operation has his own brand now, CLE.

Thank you for the background Bob! I knew they had sold the company but didn’t know much other then that.

The Eiora family that sold to CAO now makes cigars under their own name,
. Christian and his dad Sr. Eiora each have factories. Google will lead you to their brands. Christian uses the family name. Dad's place is Aldino.

Great cigars!
