Review

As a celebration of its 45th birthday, Camacho introduces its 1962 line, dubbed by many as their finest creation. Originally known as a cigar brand that produces some of the best full-bodied smokes, the Camacho takes a medium-bodied approach with the 1962. The cigar line only commemorates the move from Cuba to the Honduras. However, the question is begged to be asked: is the cigar really as good as advertised?

First, we'll start with the aesthetics, in which the Honduran tobaccos are elegantly rolled using a Criollo wrapper that has a dark appearance and lovely aroma. The medium-bodied smoke that is dominated by its smooth profile of toasted nuts and earth, with a touch of spice makes a flavorful blend. At times, the stogie reaches for usual full-bodied taste that Camacho usually delivers, making for some unique moments during the smoke, which makes the cigar an appealing choice for people smoking full-bodied stubs wanting to try out cigars with medium strength. Hence, the 1962 packs in enough punch in the medium range that would definitely appeal to full-bodied smokers.

Well the price is a bit over my budget but I can say that I would be willing to shell out a little bit more for these. I like the way the flavor is a bit thick but smooth and also the sweet taste that evens it all out. I like how it's different, I can get definitely get used to it.
