I posted my initial opinions on this cigar once before. . .

BUT

In Lieu of my current opinions of this cigar the ultimate review of this line may have been wriiten by my pal, Rob the Long Island Cowboy!

Okay, I am not going to spend a great deal of time on this cigar, because frankly, it does not deserve it. In my opinion this cigar pretty much failed on all fronts. The burn was dicey my cigar actually went out halfway through (though that could have been because I lost interest in it). the draw was okay and produced a lot of smoke, but the thing is, the smoke didn't taste like much of anything, at all. It felt like I was smoking a nicotine cloud. In the last third of the cigar a little flavor came through, but it was in turns bitter and then sour. This cigar has a nice long finish on the tongue that lingers forever, but the problem is, that that is bitter and sour as well. This is probably the worst cigar I have tasted that I can guarantee was stored and smoked properly. I would take a Te Amo any day over this. Or even a Phillie Blunt.

This cigar definitely had a strong nicotine presence, and I did get a little buzz from it after a while. the thing is, if I wanted to smoke crap tobacco to get a nicotine buzz I would give up, sell my humidor, and go with these:

Thanks for the review. I saw these the other day and was tempted to pick one up but ended up buying a different stick - looks like I lucked out.

Tom is a wonderful guy for taking one for the team.  Reminds me of my wingman days but nobody ever appreciated or thanked me.   The only consolation was that I usually had the most fun when the lights went out!

I am a Camacho freak, and I haven't had a chance to try this one yet.  I may be staying away from them now...

Most of the Camachos I have tried werre great, that might have added to the extreme dissapointment with this stick.

Tom,

Have you ever had the Cohiba Black?  That is an expensive smoke and dissappointing to me!

Tom, as you can probably tell, I love me some camachos.  My favorite shop has been closed all week, because the owner has been on vacation.  When I get back there on Friday, I will buy one and add to your review after I smoke it.  Who knows.. maybe we will have different opinions.
