It is a green blast from the past. Camacho has brought back Candela, a shamrock-colored cigar that came back in the nick of time for St. Patrick’s Day (March 17). The Camacho Candela first appeared in 2007 and has been taken off the market for a long time. The new Camacho Candela is out now on retails now.
“We’re very excited to bring back this special and unique release,” said Scott Kolesaire Sr., brand manager at Davidoff of Geneva USA.
Camacho Candela is a Honduran puro wrapped in a Criollo wrapper leaf that has been flash-cured over a charcoal flame. The extreme heat coming from the process of curing seals chlorophyll inside the leaf, which gives the leaf its green color. Under the green leaf is a Corojo filler and binder. Candela returns in only one size: a 5 inch by 50 ring gauge Robusto. Camacho Cigars depicts the blend as a medium to full, and it conveys a suggested cost of $8.00.
The first Camacho Candela first appeared in 2005. Two or after three years, it was released into more extensive distribution. At that time, Camacho was owned by the Eiroa family (the owners who sold the brand to Davidoff in 2008). Candela is just the same old thing for the Eiroa family as back before owning Camacho, Eiroa family patriarch Julio R. Eiroa was nurturing tobacco and utilizing curing techniques to develop the candela leaf. Concerning the 2018 version of the Camacho Candela, it would get a bundling overhaul that is on the same level as the rest of the Camacho portfolio. The Camacho Candela is in a limited production of 3,000 twenty-five checkboxes.
When lit, the Camacho Candela keeps on delivering the grass and cream notes that were in the pre-light draw. Furthermore, in the background, the smoker will grab some notes of white pepper and citrus. The white pepper is likewise present on the retro-hale. Amid the first third, the grass and cream notes remained the essential notes. As the Camacho Candela proceeds into the second third, the cream notes subside leaving the grassy notes only. The cream notes settle away into the background with the white pepper and citrus offering a pleasant balance to the grassy notes. Both the white pepper and increase slightly in the second third.
When the Camacho Candela enters the second half, the white pepper notes transits to a black pepper varietal in the meantime; smoker picks up a tea note. As the Camacho Candela gets to the last third, the black pepper surrounded the front line and the creamy and citrus notes dissipate. This is how the stogie experience came to an end. The subsequent stub is cool in temperature and marginally soft.
Back and like nothing anyone’s ever seen, the Camacho Candela is decked out in green to honor St. Patrick’s Day, yet this is no trick smoke, in actuality it includes indistinguishable guts from the 90 rated Camacho Corojo. The Candela, a dynamic green tobacco leaf, was at one time the most popular tobacco leaf in the United States, regardless it still has a serious fan base.
