As a tip of the hat to Macanudo’s famed brand—Macanudo Café—General Cigar created a limited-edition extension of the line with Macanudo Heritage Nuevo cigars. Before we get into the good stuff, let’s talk about the far-out band on the Macanudo Heritage Nuevo cigar. The cigars are covered in a full-length band with a detailed map of Central America. It is a truly unique look and hints and the goodness to come.
The Macanudo Heritage Nuevo cigar delivers flavors of roasted nuts, cinnamon, grass, and cream. What makes such a superb smoking experience possible? First, a Mexican binder cradles a quality blend of aged long-fillers from Mexico, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic. Then, for the wrapper, the Heritage Nuevo traded in the Café’s Connecticut shade for a Connecticut-seed wrapper from Ecuador.
An interesting fact here—when Connecticut seeds are planted in Ecuador to produce wrappers, no shade tents are required as the thick cloud cover of the region filters the sunlight naturally. In the end, you’re left with a tasty mild-medium-bodied smoke with a good draw, little to no heat, and a fantastic burn line.
The Macanudo Heritage Nuevo line aims to release modern reinterpretations of the brand’s most popular heritage blends. They accomplished this by introducing popular tobaccos in use today. The brand hopes to start a new dialogue among loyal Macanudo smokers while bringing new ones into the fold.
Please enjoy Macanudo Heritage Nuevo cigars at your leisure.
