Macanudo Completes The Trifecta With Estate Reserve Release No. 3

Macanudo has just released Estate Reserve Release No. 3, their third cigar made in collaboration with Flint Knoll winery in Napa Valley. Featuring tobacco aged in the same French Oak barrels as Flint Knoll’s 2021 Royal Appointment Cabernet Sauvignon, the cigar is heavily influenced by the award-winning wine and the barrels in which they are finished.

Macanudo Estate Reserve Release No. 3 Blend Breakdown

Estate Reserve Release No. 3 is crafted with an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, a US Broadleaf binder and a filler blend comprised of Brazilian Mata Fina, Dominican Olor, Nicaraguan Jalapa and Dominican Piloto Cubano tobaccos.

Steve Abbott, brand manager for Macanudo, said, "Macanudo’s Estate Reserve offerings are the result of a shared appreciation for two similar crafts. For Estate Reserve Release No. 3, we were lucky to have a great growing year for both the wine and the tobacco, which makes this cigar stand out even more from the others in the line.”

Aaron Michaelis, founder of Flint Knoll Winery, said, “2021 was a special year for Napa Valley wine. A lack of rain and lower temperatures brought us an ultra-rare vintage, and you can taste the subtleties in the tobaccos aged in the same barrels.”
