STG Expands Infused M by Macanudo Collection

By Tobacco Business August 1, 2022

M by Macanudo, General Cigar Co.’s line of infused cigars, is getting a line extension with the addition of new flavors that include French Vanilla, Dark Rum and Mint Cocoa.

In a press release, Scandinavian Tobacco Company’s director of marketing, Steve Abbott, commented: “The new M by Macanudo flavors continue to defy the typical flavored cigar experience. They smoke like a premium Nicaraguan cigar, yet are enhanced with enticing flavor notes to deliver an indulgent departure from the everyday smoke. The French Vanilla, Dark Rum and Mint Cocoa offerings are a great compliment to summer smoking occasions and will help to keep the vacation vibe alive when the mercury dips.”

M by Macanudo made its debut in 2018 with the introduction of the Coffee line. In 2019, the line was expanded to include a Bourbon expression followed by an Espresso blend in 2021.

All three new M by Macanudo releases feature the same blend: premium, long-filler Nicaraguan tobaccos surrounded by a Nicaraguan binder that’s enveloped in a hand-select4ed Indonesian wrapper. M by Macanudo is a medium-bodied blend made with a proprietary flavor infused process that imparts notes of vanilla, rum or mint into each cigar.

These cigars are all packaged in 20-count boxes and will be presented in a 6 x 50 Toro size. The MSRP per cigar will be set at $8.49 per cigar.
