Camacho cigars are made by Oettinger Davidoff at its Diadema Cigars de Honduras factory in Danlí, Honduras. Strength on our tags runs from medium for Camacho Connecticut to full for Camacho Corojo, Ecuador and BXP Corojo. Cigar Aficionado’s 2016 tasting called the Connecticut mild-medium, with a reedy, woody smoke and a sweet tea quality. Typical notes across the rest of the range are pepper, earth, wood and spice: Cigar Aficionado’s 2023 tasting of the all-Honduran Corojo Robusto found a peppery, earthy smoke with an espresso finish, the box-pressed BXP Corojo leans to leather, pepper and a long finish, and BXP Ecuador offers earthy wood, dark fruit and bold spice. Start with the Connecticut for the gentlest entry, then step up to Camacho Corojo for the brand’s all-Honduran profile; notes vary by size and batch.
