The new Estate Reserve Flint Knoll by Macanudo is a collaboration with a Napa Valley-based boutique winery that crafts limited-production wines.
The partnership was born from the shared appreciation of two artisanal crafts. The tobacco is aged in Cabernet barrels from the Flint Knoll Winery.
“The collaboration with Flint Knoll is the first of its kind for Macanudo and gives us the opportunity to eplore the synergies between cigar and winemaking. We look forward to future collaborations with Aaron and his team as we expand the notion of what it means to be a Macanudo by bringing terroir, craftsmanship and innovation to life,” said Steve Abbot, Director of Marketing, Macanudo.
The medium-body cigar contains premium long-filler tobaccos including Brazilian Mata Fina, Dominican Olor, Nicaraguan Jalapa, and Dominican Piloto Cubano with a US broadleaf binder and an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper. It’s available as a Toro (6 x 54) and Churchill (7 x 52) with only 2500 boxes being produced.
