Default Re: Macanudo - any good?

Yep, I purchased 2 of these from the Tinder Box in Columbus many many moons ago. They had something like a 30 dollar sticker on them but were "on sale" for 12 bucks a piece. The one was smoked right away, and the other rested at the bottom of my humidor for a few years. (I think I may still have one of the coffins around here somewhere). They were both very mild, a little nutty, and "typical Macanudo." Leaving the one in my humidor really didn't change much from what I could tell, but a light smoke in the morning with a coffee or tea matches pretty nice. I'm not a big Mac fan, but I was at one time when I started out (portofinos) and still have friends who won't smoke anything else.

Try it out and let us know what ya think.

**side note, the one left in the humi for some time had developed a little stickyness on the inside of the cello that I noticed when it was removed. I don't know what that was about, but it smoked fine.
