通用雪茄公司將推出麥克紐杜品牌的靈感(Inspirado)系列的限量版產(chǎn)品,這款產(chǎn)品的深色茄衣煙葉來自巴西的巴伊亞(Bahia)地區(qū),,比傳統(tǒng)的巴西蓋葉口味要淡一些。以前談到陰植葉時,,大家首先會想到康涅狄格河谷種植的陰植葉,,而麥克紐杜的靈感系列使用的是巴西陰植葉,,種子是康涅狄格種子,最初是2021年發(fā)布的巴西陰植葉作為茄衣煙葉卷制的麥克紐杜的靈感系列,,這周就可以發(fā)貨給零售商了,。
茄套是墨西哥圣安德列斯煙葉,茄芯是巴西,、尼加拉瓜的賈拉帕地區(qū),、多米尼加共和國的混合煙葉。多米尼加煙葉是古巴的皮洛托品種,,以及一種通用雪茄公司稱之為多米尼加庫比塔(Cubita)的煙葉,,這也是一款源自古巴的煙葉品種,種植在多米尼加的Mao地區(qū),,種植面積大概一英畝,。
今年的限量版有兩個尺寸。一款是公牛,,52環(huán)徑,,6.5英寸,每支售價10.99美元,。一款是丘吉爾,,48環(huán)徑,7英寸,,每支售價11.99美元,。外包裝盒色彩艷麗,很像巴西國企,。每盒10支包裝,,其中公牛尺寸生產(chǎn)了2100盒,丘吉爾尺寸生產(chǎn)了1200盒,。
雪茄是在多米尼加共和國的圣地亞哥的通用雪茄廠卷制的,。
The Macanudo with a Brazilian wrapper has returned, but it isn’t made with the dark tobacco you might think. When a cigar’s wrapper is described as “shade-grown,” the Connecticut River Valley normally comes to mind. General Cigar Co. is re-releasing a limited-edition version of its Macanudo Inspirado brand but these shade-grown wrappers come from Brazil’s Bahia region, and are lighter than typical Brazilian cover leaf. Originally released in 2021, Macanudo Inspirado Brazilian Shade is back and ships to retailers this week.
Underneath the Connecticut-seed Brazilian wrapper is a Mexican San Andrés binder holding together a mix of fillers from Brazil, Nicaragua’s Jalapa region and the Dominican Republic. According to the company, the Dominican tobacco is Piloto Cubano, along with a proprietary leaf General refers to as Dominican Cubita, a Cuban-seed varietal that is grown on a one-acre plot in the Mao region.
Intended to be medium in body, the cigars are available in two sizes, a Toro and a Churchill. The Toro is 6 1/2 inches by 52 ring and retails for $10.99, while the Churchill is 7 by 48 with a suggested retail price of $11.99. Both sizes come in brightly-colored boxes of 10 that are intended to evoke Brazil’s flag. Production is limited to 2,100 boxes of the Toro and 1,200 of the Churchill.
Macanudo Inspirado Brazilian Shade is produced in the Dominican Republic at the General Cigar Dominicana factory in Santiago.
