While Macanudo built its legacy on mellow, traditional cigars, the brand has shown it’s not afraid to venture into more contemporary territory. Launched in 2018, the M by Macanudo line marked the brand’s first step into the world of flavor-infused cigars. The latest addition—M by Macanudo Vanilla Bourbon—continues this evolution, blending premium craftsmanship with indulgent flavor. This cigar draws inspiration from the timeless pairing of vanilla and bourbon, capturing the warm, smoky sweetness in a premium format designed to satisfy both casual and seasoned palates.
The M by Macanudo Vanilla Bourbon Robusto cigar begins with a lush Cameroon wrapper, known for its toothy texture and delicate spice. Beneath that sits a punchy Honduran Olancho San Agustín (OSA) binder—a leaf prized for its bright, earthy character. The core is made up of Dominican Olor and Piloto Cubano fillers, bringing balance and body to the blend. Once rolled, the cigars are infused with a rich mixture of bourbon and vanilla, creating a layered profile that still respects the integrity of the tobaccos at play.
What does the M by Macanudo Vanilla Bourbon Robusto cigar taste like?
Expect a medium-bodied experience with bold, flavor-forward delivery. The vanilla infusion comes through first—creamy and smooth—followed by a warm bourbon backdrop that adds subtle heat and smokiness. Notes of toasted oak and baking spice follow, rounding out a profile that’s both aromatic and satisfying. It’s a cigar built for those who want depth and flavor without compromising on quality.
