Macanudo Emissary France: A Unique Cigar Featuring French Tobacco
Introduction
Following the success of the Macanudo Emissary España, General Cigar Co. has introduced the Macanudo Emissary France, featuring tobacco grown south of Bordeaux. This latest release continues the brand’s commitment to using unique, international tobaccos.
Macanudo Emissary France: A Bold Exploration of Global Tobacco
Macanudo is pushing boundaries once again with its latest Emissary release. After using Spanish-grown tobacco in last year’s España edition, the brand has now turned to France for a distinctive new filler leaf cultivated in the Mugron River Valley. This tobacco, based on a hybrid varietal originally developed in Paraguay, is a key component of the blend that defines the new Macanudo Emissary France.
“After the success of Emissary España, we knew we had high expectations to meet,” said Matt Wilson, senior brand manager for Macanudo. “Going to France, with its incredible flavours 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.”
The blend also features Dominican Piloto, Brazilian Arapiraca, and Connecticut broadleaf fillers, bound together by a Connecticut broadleaf binder and finished with an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper. Both the binder and wrapper have been aged for 10 years, ensuring a complex and refined smoking experience. General Cigar Co. describes the strength profile as medium-bodied.
