"Wow! This was a fantastic cigar! The cigar really didn't show its true colors until the second third, but that's fine. In the second third I got that wonderful creamy/buttery flavors. Then in the final third every other sip the cigar really surprised me with earthy tones (no spice) of wood then followed up with cream and butter. This is definitely a box purchase in my future. Would love to pair this with morning coffee as my first cigar of the day..... I'd go even further and say it could be my last cigar of the day too." -Mickey T. (irratebass)

·“If you could roll up an espresso stout into a cigar, it would probably be a lot like this one. Cocoa nibs and coffee permeated the cigar from start to finish, with little else going on other than an increase of body. The flavors were good, but there was little to keep me interested for long.” –Isaac M. (The Nothing)
In 1968 General Cigar Company purchased the Temple Hall Cigar Factory in Kingston, Jamaica. Along with this factory, the company acquired the Macanudo brand, a small cigar brand made just for the British market. Since then, it has taken off into one of the oldest and most smoked brands in the world.

·"I loved it. I should probably say more I guess. I didn't have to fight with this cigar, and it gave me some flavors that were pleasant, unique, and very compatible. It also kept me interested when the profile would transition and show me something new. Combine that with a smooth retrohale and a great burn and I am happy." -Matthew T. (A Huge Nerd)
Macanudo’s acclaimed international blends will soon be available to cigar lovers in the U.S., with the release of two channel-exclusive collections.

·"Overall, this cigar was very good with a great level of complexity and flavors. I think this cigar will further improve with age. I will definitely try this again." -Sandeep (Djangos)
