Macanudo Vintage Vintage 1993 No. I

This is the one of the best though i prefer padron maduro & Partagas #10 if I want a heavier taste

I really enjoyed smoking it on January 1st 2000!

Could not smoke this cigar slow enough to suit me. I wanted tojust sit back all day.

Sadly this beautiful cigar tastes horrible. I can't even remember a dirtier tasting stick. Macanudo has marketed this well, with great markings, but the cigar does not own up to it's beauty.

A pleasant pre-light flavor like a fresh breeze. A firm roll & a slightly tight draw. Typical Macanudo sweetness & character here, but delivered with a bit more finesse & subtlety. Mild, w/a solid ash. A toasty tone is evident, but it is marred by a developing papery quality. This is replaced by a burst of flavor in the last couple of inches.
