Not much to say about this cigar. It has a good light, burn and draw, and brings occasional flavors of robust wood and earth for a nice quick 45 minutes. For a narrow-ring cigar, it produces a hefty and satisfying volume of smoke. However it is a bit on the dry side, and veers into bitterness now and then. Not the Camacho you dream of.
If you manage to win a 5-pack of these on cigarbid.com for 7 bucks, like I did, consider yourself well-served. But do NOT pay full price expecting a luxurious smoke. It's just not there. Great for doing yardwork or snarfing down in your car with the top down. Or whiling away an hour in the garage on a rainy day.
For a much better lonsdale-sized Camacho, try the corojo cetros.

The monarchs pay tribute to this great cigar. Never been a fan of the lonsdale size. Seems as if this cigar, with it's mighty fillers needs a nice robust size. Had a robusto/monarch today as a matter of fact. Delicious. -gmrfish
I used to love Camachos, but their consistency has become such an issue, in addition to their price, that I generally don't buy them.
