Conclusion CAMACHO Liberty 2021
An elegant format, such a Churchill. I noticed the very beautiful wrapper leaf. It is oily and has a great, dark brown color. Fantastic roasted flavors retronasal to meat. Damn, I'm not kidding you! I don't know why I got that impression. Ah - now I know why. There's a barbecue going on nearby. Mystery solved.
So, once again, BBQ scent faded out: Retronasal a full load of roasted aromas of burning, dark wood - fantastic. Retronasal makes this cigar enormously richer in aromas (actually and unactually every cigar). The balance of the tobacco blend is very successful.
It is almost uncomplicated to enjoy, except for the slight draw resistance. It does not glow for very long and therefore needs some attention. It is tempting to draw on the cigar too often and too hastily. Please don't do this, otherwise it will overheat and the taste will be ruined. Just draw on it regularly and everything will be fine. The ash is not very stable and flaky.
I noticed a hint of sweetness every now and then. Interesting! This aroma gives the balance a really nice boost so that it doesn't remain linear in taste.
The price of CHF 22 / EUR 19 is high for a Camacho. However, these series always have a higher price than the Camacho standards. For a Camacho collector, of course, this is clearly a "MUST HAVE!". YEAH!
