It’s that time of the year that Camacho releases the yearly Liberty edition and having seen these in one of my local shops, Fume located in Montclair, New Jersey I had to pick up a few of them for review. I’ll be honest in saying the Liberty series has been hit or miss for me but I will always run out and pick them up to smoke. In the past I reviewed the 2007 , 2008, 2009 and to be honest with you I wish I had the others laying around to say I have reviewed the whole series to date.

Last night on Fox Business News Christian Eiroa touched on the partnership with Bayer CropScience. If you missed it you can view the video when you read more. With the official press release a few days away I was able to find more about the deal thanks to my relationship with Camacho cigars.
It turns out that Camacho Cigars has signed a deal with the Bayer Food Chain Management program which operated under Bayer CropScience. In doing so Camacho is the only tobacco company in history to comply with strict international standards for Good Manufacturing Practices and Good Agricultural Practices.
Originally I had another post scheduled today but I left my camera in my office and having had a 5 day weekend planned I didn’t really want to drive back for it. So with that I decided to get back to my roots and write a review. After all we are a cigar review blog. It’s been great reporting the news and I think for the most part it has been well received but for now it is time to smoke a cigar and share my thoughts with you, not that it matters any. We all have different taste buds and we all have different opinions. Never take my word for a cigar, go out there and try it for yourself. We may agree, or we may disagree but either way you are expressing your right to smoke and are supporting you local shops, mail order houses and manufacturers.
Tomas is back with another review, and this time he brings us the Camacho Connecticut…
I recently stopped by Santa Barbara Cigar Co. (one of my favorite cigar shops in Houston – you can find them off of Westheimer/Royal Oaks) and was visiting with Ken, Tim and Teresa. Ken is the proprietor, Tim is a regular, a friend, and engaged to Teresa aka The Smoking Hot Cigar Chick. I visit the shop almost every Friday, the crowd is typically the same with an occasional stray every once in a while but there’s always a warm and welcoming atmosphere and there’s always something good on the TV. Not to mention that there’s a great selection of sticks to choose from to please everyone’s palate.
I feel like a broken record with yet another disclaimer on the cigar being smoked for review. But once again these come gifted to me and this time the thanks goes out to Dylan over at Camacho. According to an email I got this week, Camacho Cigars has begun shipping it’s latest brand, Ramones. Ramones is an old brand originally introduced by Simon Camacho in the 1960′s. The new version is now shipping and features a Honduran interior blend with a choice of a Honduran Criollo (medium-to-full in body) or an Ecuadorian-grown, Connecticut seed wrapper (medium). The new Ramones is offered in (6) different formats, in both boxes of 25 and 50 (El Guajiro), with very accessible retail prices of $1.95 to $3.95 per cigar.
In case you have not noticed Camacho has become a paid advertiser of this website. Recently I was contacted by them asking if I could review some of there cigars and I was glad to obliged. I asked what cigars they would like me to purchase to review and they informed me not to worry that they will send me some. Some of those cigars were today’s review, the LegendArio. Not being an advertiser here does not mean a good review. It does however guarantee an honest review.
APRIL 5, 2010, MIAMI, FL – Camacho Cigars, makers of the widely popular LegendArio brand, proudly announces it’s launch of the NEW LegendArio Connecticut cigars. This new blend features an Ecuadorian grown Connecticut wrapper, and fillers from both Honduras and the Dominican Republic. The LegendArio Connecticut’s flavor profile is quite pleasant and provides for a rich, creamy, and savory smoking experience with medium strength. As with the original LegendArio release, the NEW Connecticut delivers top quality tobacco and construction at a very reasonable price point.
I reviewed this cigar back in the fall of 2009 but it was a pre-release version and I notice some changes from that cigar to this one. So I decided to review it for a second time…
Cigar: Room 101 by Camacho
Size: 5 x 50 (The 305 / Robusto)
Wrapper: Semilla 101 (Honduras)
Binder: Honduras
Filler: Dominican & Honduras
Strength: Medium
I heard good things about these smokes from those who went to the convention and I was dying to try them. Unfortunately they haven’t really begun to show up at shops around the country but I was lucky enough to have a few sent by request. So I thank the good people of Camacho cigars [...]
