Brand Profile

Introduced in the 1970s, Macanudo Maduro cigars were made with the choicest cigar wrapper leaves grown in the San Andres Tuxtla Valley of Mexico. In response to the growing demand for full-flavored cigars, an even richer Macanudo Maduro cigar was developed and introduced in 1999.

Today, Macanudo Maduro cigars are crafted in the Dominican Republic with the very best Connecticut Broadleaf wrappers. Even grainier, oilier and more flavorful than the Maduro wrapper leaves that were grown for Macanudo in the San Andres Tuxtla Valley, the Maduro wrappers now used by Macanudo are truly exceptional. In fact, only two of the many tobacco farms in the Connecticut River Valley yield Broadleaf tobacco leaves that meet the high standards for Macanudo Maduro cigars.

Like a rare port wine, a Macanudo Maduro cigar has a lingering, rich flavor that lends itself to moments of the most tasteful relaxation.

Macanudo cigars was originally the name of a frontmark produced in Jamaica by the makers of the Cuban brand of Punch. In 1971, General Cigar Company introduced a new cigar named Macanudo as a brand unto itself. Developed in Jamaica under the creative leadership of Ramon Cifuentes, the legendary Cuban cigar master of Partagas,  Macanudo cigars soon became the leading premium cigar and remains so today.

Now crafted exclusively in the Dominican Republic, every Macanudo cigar is made with the finest wrapper, a flavorful blend of Dominican tobaccos and a select binder. So as to assure you of the same smoothness in cigar after cigar, the makers of Macanudo use only the most thoroughly aged tobaccos.

Every time you light up a Macanudo cigar, you can count on enjoying the same relaxing experience, for this is the cigar that always delivers the same distinctively Macanudo-smooth taste.
