Revamped and ready to blow some minds, the Macanudo Inspirado Black Robusto is a full-bodied, full-flavored jewel of a cigar. Once known primarily for their smooth and mild smokes, Macanudo’s portfolio of exquisite smokes now showcases a variety of strengths and styles to appeal to many an aficionado. The Inspirado Black, first released in 2015 but re-blended and relaunched in 2017, is perhaps their most potent cigar to date. Containing an expertly balanced mix of Esteli-grown Nicaraguan longleaf tobaccos plus a Ecuadorian Sumatra binder, it is the special Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, grown using an innovative process that allows it to ripen on the stalk, that really makes this cigar a new benchmark for the iconic company.
Expertly rolled and decorated with a stylish black and silver band, the sleek look of a 4.8” X 48 Macanudo Inspirado Black Robusto will inspire your mouth to start watering long before you clip the cap. Your lips might detect just a touch of tooth on the extra-dark and oily Broadleaf as you slowly puff during lighting, while your tongue will already detect hints of coffee bean and earth. The steady burn line hitting the sweet spot allows the profile to bloom, adding in sweet wood, leather, white pepper, and black licorice. As the strength of the cigar reaches its zenith around the midpoint and begins a slow decent to the nub, you can expect to savor espresso, dark chocolate, and candied fruit.
Rich with both heritage and flavor, once you’ve smoked an Inspirado Black Robusto you might not look at another Macanudo cigar in quite the same way. So wash away the cares of a day by sitting back with a favorite beverage and one of these wonderful cigars. We’re certain it will be the best thing you’ve done for yourself in a long time.
