In this video Ben talks to Victoria McKee Jaworski about the latest Macanudo, the Macanudo Mao. General Cigars has been keeping their tobacco scientists busy, because like the new Partagás Ramón y Ramón, the Mao uses Dominican tobacco from “regenerated” vintage 1960’s seeds. In addition to that the blend also includes Nicaraguan and Colombian leaf. It’s a limited edition, only 1800 boxes in each three sizes were produced, with prices ranging from $16 to $18, plus applicable taxes for each coffined cigar. The Macanudo Mao started shipping after the show, so look for them in retailers now.
