The verdict
The Camacho Liberty 2020 Gordo is a bold, full-bodied cigar from Camacho's Liberty Series line. It's a Honduras (New World) gordo wrapped in Honduran Original Corojo at 6 in × 60.
On the palate, expect leather, black pepper, and earth, leaning earthy. Plan on roughly 80 minutes from light to nub.
It pairs naturally with espresso, aged rum, and bourbon. If you're newer to cigars, work up to this one rather than starting here.
The Camacho Liberty Series was the brand's yearly limited edition, and the 2020 release broke from tradition: instead of the line's familiar Honduran-heavy 11/18 shape, it came as a box-pressed 6 x 60 Gordo with a diverse multi-country blend. It still centered on Camacho's signature Honduran-grown Original Corojo, using four different primings of that leaf to build the profile.
What it tastes like
This is a full-bodied, bold smoke in line with the Liberty Series reputation. Leather, black pepper, and earth lead, with dark chocolate and cedar filling in behind. The big box-pressed Gordo format keeps the smoke cool and plentiful, letting the layered Corojo primings show off depth and a satisfying richness from light to nub.
Who it's for
A collector's cigar for aficionados who like a powerful, large-format smoke and a limited release to mark the occasion. If you usually stick to milder sticks, the cigar strength guide will help you brace for the body.
