Macanudo Gold Label Duke Of York
"What's the big deal?"
Macanudo Gold Somerset
I don't know what the hype is all about. This cigar bruned well and had good draw but the taste was terrible. Taste is the most important thing to me and this cigar was not smooth and did not have any particular taste other than burning pepper, bad after taste, harsh smoke and no flavor. I like the 54 rings so I went with one of these and left it in the humodor for four months. After smoking it I am glad I didn't buy more than one!

"Superb! Mellow rich and creamy to the end."
Macanudo Gold Label Duke Of York
This is truly a superb cigar! I don't want to put this cigar down until I almost burn my lips. It maintains its rich, creamy, mellow flavor from the start to the end.

"NICE !!!"
Macanudo Gold Label Tudor
Im new to the world of cigars, so Ive taken more to the mild to medium cigars. Ive tried many and I have to say that I loved and enjoyed the Macanudo gold. Im not sure what all the correct terminology I should be useing but I really enjoyed it, it didnt sting my tounge, every puff was easy and people around me who do not smoke at all told me that my cigar smelled great. I can only afford to buy 2-3 at a time , I only wish it was a little cheaper to buy a box but I can understand why the price is what it is.

"The Best Smoke"
Macanudo Gold Label Duke Of York
Finally got myself a box of these beauties and I am thrilled. I generally prefer to buy my smokes in small quantities (5 or 10 packs) because I love to stock my humidor with a wide range of sizes and strenghs. But after I sampled my first Gold Label, I knew that the next time these came around I wanted a box so I would never have to be without this selection. It's that good. Beautiful to look at, exceptionally smooth and sweet all the way through and although very mild, the flavor is delicious. The only negative is that the burn can be a little inconsistent but that's a small deficiency in my mind because the taste and texture are so awesome. If you like em smooth and silky, this is one you have to have.

"Pricey for Value"
Macanudo Gold Label Tudor
Good Cigar w/ nice appearance, mild smoke w/ very good draw. Unique nutty flavor that finished a little metallic. Price high for the value. Many better smokes available for less. Score 86

"3"
Macanudo Gold Label Shakespeare
One can only hope to get his hands on this smooth cigar. Given to me on the 4th of July I only had to ash twice the entire cigar. Smooth, Flavorful, and complimenting a nice merlot this baby is the end all of even draw. Enjoy!

"These Macanudo Shakespeare's suck."
Macanudo Gold Label Tudor
These Macanudo Shakespeare's suck. Poor (by that I mean terrible)
construction, poor burning, and a sour, bitter taste. I can directly
compare these to a bad Caridad, which costs a small percentage of the
price. I've run across a few that were "OK," but these are by far a rip
off. There're loosely rolled, they burn knots, and the ash flakes off into
pieces all over me. I really hate these. I just stopped trying to smoke
them, because I have to constantly nurse them. Not worth a cent of what I
paid. Tell Macanudo they better start doing damage control, if they want to
keep getting their price. Finding a cheap cigar is not difficult.

"I could smoke these....forever!"
Previous
My wife bought me a box of these (Tudors) for Christmas. They've been sitting in my humidor at 65-70 for a little over a month now and they are really smoking great and tasting fabulous! This is a mild cigar that you can smoke down to 1 inch, but it is quite complex, yet smooth and flavorful smoke. It doesn't compete with dinner, desert, or after dinner drinks. It really compliments them! They burn well, taste well, look great, and are very consistent. They are worth the money. This is a quintessential Macanudo! Can you tell, I really like these cigars!
