It seems as though with each day that passes, the Macanudo Cigar brand becomes increasingly popular, especially among those with cultured palates. From the extraordinary measures taken to ensure the perfect crop is produced to the bounty of unique flavors, the Macanudo Vintage 2000 series is truly unlike any other line available today. In fact, the blend is so rare, only a handful of crops have even been considered worthy of carrying the name.
From the start of the harvesting process in the Dominican Republic, the dream of what could be has been ingrained in the mind of those in charge of overseeing the process, especially Daniel Nuňez. Such a desire to be not only exceptional, but also the best, has driven this cigar master one step further to personally monitor the crop during the growing season. In fact, he is extremely involved in providing a sort of check and balance system, which meticulously cures and ages the immaculate leaves produced by the harvest. Thus, the pristine Connecticut shade wrappers used for the Macanudo Vintage 2000 series are only the sixth crop to meet the superb standards set forth in 27 years.
Each Macanudo Vintage 2000 is guaranteed to live up to its noble name because the process for acquiring the perfect combination of wrapper, filler, and binder was so meticulously monitored. In 2000, the Connecticut shade wrapper and, Mexican Piloto Cubano filler, and Mexican San Andrean binder were harvested and blessed by a combination of perfect weather and scrupulous cultivation, which resulted in superior leaves, with an exceptional size and shape. Thus, the Macanudo brand takes full advantage and jumps on the opportunity to capture perfection.
As with any Macanudo cigar, these crops received remarkable care from the very beginning. However, even after very detailed pampering, the finished Macanudo Vintage 2000 series was still many years from completion. After being fermented and aged for five years using a special process taken from Cuban masters, and continually supervised by Daniel Nuňez throughout, the result was one that can never again be replicated, which only adds to the already magnetic attraction of these cigars.
To add to the legendary profile, the experience of these cigars is outstanding as well. In fact, perhaps the most exhilarating element of the whole process is setting fire to one of these beauties with the knowledge that all the tobaccos have been double cured and tercio-aged, producing an intensely rich and creamy flavor that would most certainly outshine any other aged cigar hands down. Just knowing of the extreme care taken to ensure perfection adds layers of excitement to an already complex and aromatic smoke.
Overall, the Macanudo Vintage 2000 series reigns in the company of those with gallant reputations. With so much attention given to these precious sticks from the beginning, it is no wonder they are quickly disappearing forever. Anyone that can get their hands on one of these cigars will no doubt find themselves in great company, even if they are the only one in the room.
