The "Ecuador Robusto" cigar from the house of Camacho reveals a bold personality while remaining approachable: wrapped in a beautiful Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, it rests on a Brazilian Mata Fina binder and a filler blend of Honduran and Dominican Republic tobaccos. Upon lighting, a burst of red pepper is felt, followed by aromas of roasted cedar, loose earth, and leather. Later, notes of dark chocolate and espresso join a fine hint of citrus or honey, contributing to a pleasing complexity. The body is medium to medium-full: robust without excess, making it perfect for a flavorful break. Its construction is generally reliable, though some users have reported burn irregularities in certain batches. For aficionados of a well-crafted cigar, both rich and consistent, this Robusto stands as a fine piece in the Camacho range.
