Macanudo Emissary was created to deliver a sophisticated smoking experience by sourcing the world’s most luxurious tobaccos.
Created to deliver a sophisticated smoking experience, Macanudo Emissary features some of the world’s most luxurious tobaccos, highlighted by aged Havana seed grown near Riolobos, Spain. The region’s rocky soil and Mediterranean climate yield a rich leaf with a flavor that cannot be replicated. This rare Spanish tobacco, within harmonious, fivecountry blend, results in a cigar with intensity and intricacy.
The Spanish Havana is paired with five tobaccos from four other countries (Nicaragua, Colombia, Dominican Republic, and the US) that are aged between 5 and 10 years. The optimal aging mellows the tobaccos, bringing forward each tobacco’s intricacies. The resulting cigar yields a nuanced smoking experience that cannot be rivaled.
About the growing region in Spain: The tobacco has been grown in Riolobos in the West-Central Region in Spain, approximately 1 hour from the Portuguese border. This growing region is known for its rocky soil which is atypical compared to other tobacco growing regions. The Mediterranean climate, which has its influence on the taste of the tobacco, can be defined as pleasant weather conditions which are characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters.
Due to these growing conditions the tobacco characteristics are:
– Narrow-leaf tobacco
– Creamy vanilla aroma in the retrohale
– Rich, creamy, salty, caramel taste with a light roasted coffee at the end
