“Back in 2000, Christian Eiroa, President and CEO of Camacho Cigars, rolled out the Camacho Corojo, starting a trend towards stronger cigars that’s still making waves ten years later. It has undeniably changed the way we smoke cigars. Major cigar companies launched new and stronger cigars; new boutique cigar companies emerged wielding ridiculously strong offerings… yes, like all trends, it has grown a little out of control. But in the end, the cigar business as a whole has benefited from this movement.

We think Christian is at it again.”

The name Scorpion doesn’t sound like a Camacho name. Legend has it that the maker of this cigar was surprised by a Scorpion while doing some work and thus having this creature on his mind while deciding what to name this cigar. The Scorpion could be considered a “rare” cigar. Only 3,000 a year are made and in 2011 production will stop. This cigar was initially meant for a Cigar Club in North Carolina and is still extremely hard to find. I was lucky enough to find one, but was limited to only one purchase.

In 2002 the Camacho brand offered its first limited edition; the Liberty Collection.  Every year since the Liberty has been a one time limited release- one size one blend- using the best tobaccos available to create a one time experience, never to be repeated.  Just as a particular wine’s vintage runs its course- so too do the annual limited runs of Camacho Liberty.  Over the years some have been milder, others stronger; some with more unique shapes, others with double wrappers creating a “barber-pole” like effect.  But this year’s Camacho Liberty epitomizes the Camacho experience.  Straight forward, rich, complex fabulous tasting tobacco.

This is the first unfinished foot and pigtailed cap cigar that I have had to date.I was beyond nervous as I made the initial cut on the cap but it was quick and clean I sort of toasted the unfinished foot and while lighting it I got a awesome taste of what I can only describe as crab boil or a good seafood/Creole spice.
