This is my first review. Hope it is helpful.
Camacho Corojo Toro
acquired from auction in 5 pack.
Honduran, Length/Ring: 6 x 50, Toro, Wrapper: Dark Natural
Sold in boxes of 20 at most online sites.

Nice looking brown wrapper, seems to have very good construction, except foot a little frayed from handling or shipping (were not in cello), aroma very good, got a bad light due to wind on the front porch, but the burn evened out quickly with a little touch-up, draw just about perfect, easy with lots of smoke, first 1.5 inches full flavor, gave a bit of pepper sensation to the tongue in a not-unpleasant way, flavor became richer as the cigar was smoked, superb tobacco taste, became even stronger in the last 2.5 inches, but remained pretty smooth, just more good flavor. At about 1.25 inches left, my old fat gut said, "Give it up , Ol'Son- we are having too much fun!"

This is a damn good cigar, and fairly priced in today's market. At the moment, I can't think of a cheaper cigar with as much flavor or that I have enjoyed more. I can think of a number of more expensive cigars, some much more expensive, that I enjoyed less. One helluva smoke!
All the Best!
