Camacho Triple Maduro
Robusto
4.5x50
Honduras

It's a nice looking cigar - looks well made, no obvious veins. The draw is good - a little resistance, but not too much. The initial flavors are of coffee and nuts. I noticed a little cocoa toward the end of the first third. It puts out a lot of white smoke. The second third is more cedary. The last part had a licorish taste and a dark coffee flavor. I had to retouch the burn once, slightly, but other than that had no issues with it. Seems to be a medium flavored cigar. I liked it and would give it 8 out of 10.

I really enjoy this cigar, just wish it was a little cheaper.

As once said, "less is more." Unfortunately the Eiroa family didn't follow this advice. The world's only all-maduro cigar - there was a reason nobody did it before. I am sure they sell a boatload of these cigars but I find them complete overkill with very little balance and marginal flavors. Just because one maduro is good, then more maduro filler and maduro binder? Maybe we will have a MaduroX10 soon - with the entire box made out of maduro? This cigar reminds me of the 6 blade shaving razors. Feels like a novelty cigar.

I don't know, I just really covet more interesting flavor profiles these days. I also found the draw a bit tight and construction was not excellent. Not sure about the true quality of the tobacco in these either. I didn't notice the strength, but I did notice I was bored when smoking these. My girlfriend also said it was the ugliest cigar she had ever seen me smoke, so maybe that made the hill pretty steep. However, that is just my opinion and really of little consequence if you enjoy these. Thanks for the review. I would not buy again though - less demand, more for you, lower price.

Indeed - everyone has their own taste and I certainly appreciate all replies to my post.

I will agree that they are overpriced. I would take an A-Series 5 Vegas over these any day for a much more reasonable price, but then I really like the A-series.
