Quick Smoke: Macanudo Hampton Court

Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.

Despite being the best-selling premium cigar in America, I’ve never really been a huge fan of Macanudo, especially the brand’s Connecticut Shade-wrapped Café line. But the five and ½ inch by 42 ring gauge Hampton Court I enjoyed at a bar the other night really hit the spot with some creamy, mild flavors. While you may have to pay a little extra for the name, the quality control and consistency are hard to beat.

Verdict = Buy.
