Review Notes: Unlike the pale Connecticut wrappers that cover normal Macanudo Cafes, these have have a nice darker color. No. 12 in Cigar Aficionado's top 25 cigars of 2006. Although it burns slightly unevenly, the draw is excellent and fills your mouth with lots of creamy smoke. It's toasty and nutty with vanilla and cream flavors. I do think these taste better than regular Macs; however, these cost twice as much and I wouldn't say they're twice as good. Maybe 1.5 times as good. Still, if money were no object, this is a good choice for a creamy mild-medium smoke.
