A honduran puro.

Leaning towards full body & flavor. Probably a little too much for someone who would rather smoke something mild - medium. Has a slight kick of spice and cinnamon that lingers, but also leaves a subtle sweetness. Knowing that this cigar comes from the maker(s) of the God of Fire, I would say this is like an ampef up GOF. The GOF is fairly mild, in a great way, from what I recall. If you find the GOF lacking than this would be a step in the right direction, and worth a try at 1/3 the price. I paid around $6 for it. (crap...just lost my ash after just over an inch) and almost killed the burn) If you google"sencillo cigars," I think it would be the first link that has a review that, surprisingly, coming from (i think) the manufacturers website, I can pretty much completely agree with. Apparently the robusto is the more potent of the vitolas...figures that's the one I'd pick. Probably not a morning smoke, but would go well after a good dinner. I'm not good at pairing cigars and beer/booze, but imagine this would be good with a stout beer, scotch, or bourbon.

Recommend? Yes!

Great burn and draw. I'm almost halfway through and it's still maintaining its flavor with only slightly less spice...more allspice (per the websites review) rather than a peppery spice.

I have been curious about these, as I'm sure Elk is, since they are made in the Camacho factory. I'll have to track some down in hopes of smoking one with him when I pass through Portland.
