Thoughts? I have enjoyed other Camacho sticks but have steered clear of the $25 pricetag, but for a deal I might be interested. I've looked through other reviews and have read mixed opinions.

Keep an eye on the sprint sale, they come up every once in a while in a 5 pack or bundled with a herfador.
however, it is not my favorite thing put out by camacho.
Couple of other thoughts though . . .
First, these are very different from pretty much everything else I've had from Camacho. These are much lighter and leaves a dry mouthfeel to em. So keep that in mind, when you try em so you aren't expencting something else and are let down.
Second, most folks are focussed on the PE tobacco in them, but I'd urge you to read up a little on the wrapper and pay attention to the first few puffs of the curly foot (just wrapper), becuase the wrapper is what truly sets this cigar apart. I forget the specifics on it, but I remember this being the real treat in the cigar.
Let us know what you think after you try some.
Christian Eiroa of Camaco collected the hybreed Corojo 99 seeds from Daniel Rodriquez, the grandson of Diego Rodriquez. This seeds were smuggled in Honduras in 1997. Then it was distributed to Ecuador, DR and Ecuador. All these countries have modified the seeds with further genetic engineering.
experienced smokers who are familiar with Cuban cigar from 80's still misses the taste and aroma of the original El Corojo. it was more dense stronger in strength, flavors and aroma.
