Camacho Equador

When I started smoking cigars regularly in 2019 I got a couple of Camachos in a sampler. I liked them, but did not purchase any more till now: I got a 5 pack recently.

The first one I smoked few days back (Did not post here) had a weird construction issue - At first it canoed but then it extinguished itself and refused to light. After a few minutes I gave up.

Today, it immediately canoed after I lit 🔥 it up. It have now corrected itself on its own, but the burn line is extremely uneven.

I am hoping it’s just a bad batch.

I had a Camacho Corojo a few years back that was so bad it looked like if a cartoon character was smoking a cigar and it exploded in their face. The end was all flowered out, ash everywhere, really just a terrible experience. Haven’t tried one since. They’re not worth the money, in my opinion.

I had the same issue with their Scorpion I got in a sampler pack. It was rested in my humidor around 65-70% for months.
