Macanudo

Emissary

France

The Emissary Series from Macanudo has an innovative approach to cigarmaking: bring incredibly rare tobaccos from throughout Europe into a premium smoke, creating a never-before-experienced tasting profile that will add a new dimension to your collection. Feast your palate on leaf from the Mugron River Valley of France. This region, which sits comfortably between the Bordeaux region and the Spanish border, provides the dreamlike locale for your new favorite cigar. This waterside hotspot gives the tobacco a flavor profile of berries and grapes, along with a kiss of sea salt from the Atlantic waters that were washing up against the growth on a daily basis. This cigar required an all-hands approach from the team at Macanudo, as pairing other varietals with a tobacco that has never before been used in a cigar can be an extraordinary effort. That’s why the lineup in this smoke is complex, featuring an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, Broadleaf binder and filler tobacco from Brazil and the Dominican Republic. Each of the tobaccos used for this cigar were aged for between four and 10 years, giving the smoking experience a touch of true elegance. Matt Wilson, senior brand manager for Macanudo, said in a press release: “After the success of Emissary España, we knew we had high expectations to meet. Going to France, with its incredible flavors and deep-rooted tradition of sophistication, felt like a natural next step. We were inspired by the richness and refinement that define French craftsmanship and set out to create a cigar that embodies those same qualities.” Medium-bodied in strength, the cigar is available in four sizes from Santa Clara in 16-count boxes.
