I have smoked Macanudo Cigars for years now, and read that they originated in Jamaica. That appeared bizarre becauce I haven’t heard much about Jamaican tobacco. Reputedly, Cuban immigrants brought tobacco seeds to Jamaica, as they actually did each where else they moved to. But because of hurricanes, labor issues and war, it’s been a tough road for the Jamaican tobacco plant. Macanudo, which originated in Jamaica is now home made by General Cigar Company, found in Connecticut. They create quality, high end, premium cigars, including Macanudo. They use their own Connecticut shade wrappers, and various tobaccos from the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Africa for the filler and binder. These are my favorite cigars for many reasons, I like the sweet but spicy flavour. They’re strong, though not overwhelming. I can smoke once per day and be satisfied. There are just a few known Jamaican cigars around nowadays, and they seem tough to come by. If the others taste as well as a Macanudo, I may switch, but for now I’m sticking to what I love.
