Alright, I’m simply floored by the generosity of Camacho in sponsoring this month long contest. We are giving a five pack of Camacho Cigars and a Camacho Hat every day in March and a Grand Prize of a box of Camacho 10th Anniversary Cigars at the end of the month.

This special contest is to celebrate the 1 Year Anniversary of CigarJack.net and the release of Camacho’s 10th Anniversary Cigar. The 10th Anniversary was designed by Christian Eiroa to celebrate the family’s 10th anniversary of growing the world’s only authentic corojo tobacco. (more…)

Description: I got this cigar as part of a word of mouth promotion they are trying over at Social Cigar, Camacho’s new online cigar community. The cigar was very nice looking, and actually very dark for a natural wrapper. If hadn’t seen the nearly black SLR Maduro you could have told me this was the Maduro and I would have believed you. The wrapper had a little tooth on it and one bigger vein in it, but overall very well constructed. I checked the prelight draw and found it acceptable picking up some hints of leather and wood.

This week’s edition of Cigar Links focuses on the Camacho Corojo Diploma. I reviewed the Camacho Diploma Natural back in August 2007. The tobacco in the Diploma is from the Fifth Priming. These are the top most leaves taken from the plant last so they get more sun and nutrients. Resulting in a stronger and more flavorful cigar. (more…)

Description: I’ve had this cigar sitting in my humidor for a month or two, a gift from Doc Stogiefresh. The cigar is beautiful, and a fantastic work of art. I love the dark maduro contrasting the silver bands. The wrapper is a bit rough looking, but has some crystals on the wrapper. This is one of those cigars that I sat inspecting for a few minutes before lighting it.

The Triple Maduro doesn’t pull any punches, starting off with some woody and espresso flavors. It gives off a ton of white smoke while your puffing on it, but not much sitting in the ashtray. I did have some burn issues that required some touch up, but it evened up after awhile. (more…)
