Macanudo Launching New Vintage Cigar

Macanudo Vintage 2010

The world’s first Vintage cigar was created by Macanudo nearly 40 years ago to spotlight an exceptional wrapper developed in part by Mother Nature, fast-forward to today, and a new vintage.

Macanudo Vintage 2010 will hit store shelves in mid-August.

Preceded eleven years ago by a growing season with high temperatures and optimal rainfall, 2010 features a Connecticut River Valley silky shade-grown tobacco wrapper.

Ernest Gocaj who oversees the Connecticut growing operations for Macanudo tells Cigar World, “We could not have asked for a better growing season than we had in 2010.”

The cigar also features a unique proprietary Cuban-seed varietal regenerated by General Cigar’s agronomists, partnered with hand-selected Nicaraguan and Honduran leaves, aged three to five years. The blend is bound with a Nicaraguan leaf.
