MACANUDO EMISSARY FRANCE | CIGAR REVIEW

MAY 11, 2025 - PHIL KURUT, COMEDY - CIGARS - MUSIC

MACANUDO EMISSARY FRANCE ROBUSTO (5 x 52)

WRAPPER: ECUADORIAN HABANO

BINDER: USA BROADLEAF

FILLER: DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, USA, BRAZIL, FRANCE

Emissary France starts rather mild with bits of earth, very subtle spice, and the lightest touch of cream. Coffee seamlessly mixes with the cream within a dozen puffs. Didn’t even have to stir.

Easy draw with a plentiful smoke output.

A clean retrohale drops earth and cream. Coffee, smooth leather, and light spice do a quick check-in on the finish.

The burn has its struggles, but it seems to find its way with a couple touch-ups and some smoke rolls™. Easy enough.

Cream picks up a tad. Milk chocolate strolls into the party. Always a welcome guest.

SMOKE TIME: 1 hr. 18 mins.

RATING: 3 / 4 - Didn’t even have to stir.
