    I was on a cigar buying hiatus...I wasn't checking out but apparently I was still putting stuff in my cart, lol. And it's your fault FireRob that I got into the Camachos. Figured since you liked them sooo much I had to try some. Had the Havana Petites and the Corojo Limited. Both were so good! I have 5 more Corojo coming as well since my husband didn't get one the first time around. Told him he could have 1 of the Havana's too :) Most of what's in there is something that somebody on here mentioned really liking.

    Edna, I my self have bought two box's of those Havana's and a few 5 pks. Been stocking up on all the old Camacho I can while it's still available. If you want something a little stronger but not too bad but I deff say more so then the Havana be sure to try the new Equador. Glad I could help sway you to the Camacho side.

    Whats so special about the old Camacho's that make you feel its necessary to stock them? Something lacking in the new ones?

    Well, it's just the fact that they are not available anymore since Camacho went through the "re_branding". I would have been happy if they'd just left things as they were. Kuzi says the new Havanas are a tad bit better in his opinion. The new Havanas were slightly re-blended and renamed Criollo. I'm happy I got a box of the old Havanas (pyramid?) about a year ago. I like the way they have aged. If you check out kuzi's review thread, there's a side by side review he did last month between the old Havana blend and the new Criollo.

    ^^^ Ah OK. Thanks for the explanation.

    Yep, basically what Bob said. Most of the old ones are slightly different then the new and several blends were discontinued. I personally have been a big fan of the current Crillio and had it before my first older Havana. When I got serious about cigars (about a year ago) most of the switch over had already taken place. Seems like most sites are selling off all the old stuff right now so I have been picking up what I can. I'd like to be able to try every Camacho and there are several that still elude me. Recently I was lucky to get my hands on a Select from the devil site. That story is posted a page or two back in this thread.
