Easy draw. Good draw. A bit peppery after first light but mellowed out after 1/2 inches. Tunneled and went out less than an inch in. Put it down for a delivery and went out again. Went out again and tunneled at halfway point. Started tasting oily but smells incredible
Easy light, great ash, consistent burn, smooth throughout…
It’s everything that makes a Macanudo a Macanudo. It’s rocketed to the top of my favorites list.
One of my favorite cigars at the moment. It’s a light and mellow smoke. Smooth woody vibes with notes of burnt toast and leather. One of the easiest smokes.
Very mellow
Notes of wood and hay with walnut
After first 1/3 nuttiness gives way to more wood and hay
Very nice draw
Mostly straight burn line for duration
Mellow and subtle
Wood and barnyard on cold draw
Leather and walnut notes with some spice in first 1/3
Gives way to more wood and hay in next 1/3 with maybe some mocha coming through slightly
Humidity of smoke time was 67% very earthy flavor on first drag draw is perfect taste of leather, scar draw was perfect all the way to the very end lots of white smoke as well
I don't think that Macanudo has a bad cigar in the Inspirado line. My favoritest (yep, that's a real word. Lol) is the Inspirado orange, but these whites rank right up there.
Had graham cracker in the retrohale in the 1st half, with a little hay and wood mouth flavor. Going into the final ⅓, I got more wood and tobacco flavors, with a bit of spiciness on the retrohale. It also needed a hot purge at this point, because it was plugging up a bit.
All-in-all, a very pleasurable smoke.
Quite veiny. Had to touch up a bit as the cigar got to 2/3. Light smoke, mild flavor profile. Some light pepper, leather, woody. Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper aged 6 years, Nicaraguan and Mexican San Andres filler aged for 4 years. The real kicker on this one is the amazing draw. Would definitely buy again.
The flavor was on the mild side, but nice. The main notes were creamy coffee with a mild nuttiness. The draw was nice, but the burn was a little unpredictable. It started out even, but developed a run or two in the duration of the smoke. I think this would have paired better with some coffee. The Jamesons overpowered it a bit.
My very first Macanudo. Didn't think I'd like it when the first 3/4 inch of ash thought it looked better on my shirt than on the cigar. Fairly consistent burn and a great draw. Smoke was thin though, unless you took three or four draws in a row. Definitely worth smoking again.
An enjoyable smoke from start to finish. It burned slow and even from beginning to end. The smoke was heavy, which I prefer. The flavor was mild with hints of citrus with a soft leather on the last 1/3. It's hard to find something negative to say. Simply pleasant. This was stored at 65 RH for several weeks. Paired with Legacy Whiskey.
