CIGAR OF THE WEEK:
12/17/14 – 12/23/14
Camacho Ecuador Figurado
$5.99 (Limit of 5)Size: 6 1/8″ x 42 x 54
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Habano
Binder: Brazilian Mata Fina
Filler: Honduran & Dominican (Corojo, Criollo, Pelo de Oro)
The latest entry in Camacho’s line of flavor-bombs, the Ecuador is an outstanding, full-bodied cigar featuring a trio of tasty fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic, a binder of Brazilian mata fina (which adds a sweet, creamy element), and most notably a wrapper of Ecuadorian Habano for added strength and tang (Ecuadorian habano is a popular choice for wrapper leaf due to the unique combination of nutrients in the region’s volcanic soil). The result is a rich, almost yeasty profile with hints of fruit and caramel, just the thing to top off a hearty meal or enjoy with an evening drink. |
