Macanudo MAO No. 10

Blind Man's Puff · Feb 22, 2017 · July 2016

Each of the past few years at the IPCPR show, Macanudo has released a limited edition of it’s Macanudo brand, this year was the Macanudo MAO featuring heirloom Dominican seeds from the 1960’s. This cigar was reviewed blind (no bands) by a panel of at least 4 reviewers. They did not know what they were smoking beforehand. The scores are an average of all the reviewers' scores with outliers removed. All of our cigars reviewed are shipped to the panelists with Boveda packs to ensure optimal smoking experience. Macanudo ‘s team of agronomists regenerated the seeds over eight growing seasons, breeding the plants in two different countries to deliver improved leaf shape, color and combustibility, while preserving the rare tobacco’s true flavor. In just four years, the agronomists have replicated the taste of a bygone era for the sheer enjoyment of today’s discerning smokers. The regenerated Dominican tobacco comprises the lion’s share of the blend, which also includes Nicaraguan and Colombian long filler and a Mexican binder. The wrapper is a Connecticut Shade selected solely for Macanudo Mao. Jhonys Diaz, master blender and vice president of operations said, “ Macanudo Mao is one of our finest examples of tobacco expertise to date. We began our regeneration experiments more than five years ago, and are extremely proud of our team of agronomists for bringing this exceptionally-flavored tobacco back to life.” The MAO is named for the growing region in the Dominican Republic where the seeds were cultivated and will only be available until the limited release of 1,800 boxes per size is depleted. Macanudo Mao was available beginning in September in three front marks, each protected in individual coffins and presented in 10-count boxes. They are: No. 10 — 5 x 50; SRP per cigar is $16.00 No. 11 — 7 x 50; SRP per cigar is $17.00 No. 12 — 6 x 57; SRP per cigar is $18.00

Macanudo Cafe Gigante

Cigar Coop · Apr 22, 2012

Macanudo Cafe Gigante Up until a few years ago, the Macanudo brand within the General Cigar family has primarily been associated with cigars that are traditionally on the milder side in terms of strength and body.  Over the past few years, Macanudo has added cigars such as the Cru Royale, Vintage 2007 Maduro, and 1968 […]

Macanudo Mao No. 10

Halfwheel · Sep 11, 2017 · September 2016

This is one of those cigars I am glad I did a redux review of, as it is quite different than the first time I smoked it almost a year ago. While the Macanudo Mao No. 10 is still not exactly packed with unique flavors, it is noticeably more complex, with none of the overripe mango note I picked up the first time around as well as more of a balanced profile overall. In the end, the 11 months of rest has made a world of difference in the enjoyment of this cigar, although the price is still a bit hard to swallow.

Holt's Staff Reviews · Oct 24, 2017

I’m smoking an iconic mild cigar, Macanudo Café, and I’m firing up a 5.5-by-49 Hyde Park, one of the most popular Robustos in the world. Macanudo is one of those cigar brands people who don’t even smoke cigars are familiar with. That’s because you can find Macanudo cigars everywhere cigars are sold, from premium cigar shops to convenience stores and gas stations. On top of its widespread availability, Macanudo Café is a very mellow blend, making it an ideal cigar for beginners.

A longer smoke than I had guesstimated. Light to light-medium profile but with no shortage of interesting notes and transitions perhaps not complex, but far from boring. Nuanced. A very nice br/l/unch stick that will serve to recharge your day.
