"Delightful, creamy, mellow, wonderful aroma."
This cigar was exactly what I was looking for tonight. It was a nice, warm, calm night and I was just looking to relax. This cigar had flawless construction and a simple, but tailored appearance. The light was easy and it burned razor sharp throughout. The draw was a little tight, but not uncomfortable. All Macanudos I've smoked so far seem to be rolled a little tighter than the other brands. The ash was firm and more white than gray. This cigar started mild and mellow and ended the same. The first third started with hints of caramel and sweet roasted nuts. The caramel and sweet roasted nuts remained, but were slightly pushed back by a stronger leathery presence in the second third, which took the lead into the final stretch. The finish was smooth with each puff and never harsh or overpowering. I loved the aroma of this cigar, which was slightly sweet. It almost reminded me of walking through a carnival and standing near the roasted cinammon walnuts and roasted peanut stand. Macanudo has impressed me, yet again. I'm looking forward to adding more of these to my humidor!

"Expected better"
This was the first cigar that made me lightheaded and vomit. Other than that it was a boring smoke.

"always good"
I try other cigars but I always compare them to the Hyde Parks and I regret that I did not order the Macs. They will always be my favorite

"Bitter"
These cigars taste bitter even after resting in the humi for at least 2 months. Every one I tried tastes bitter with a soapy taste and runs.

"Best cigar, ever!"
I think I've smoked them all by now and Hyde Park has the greatest consistency of any cigar of any brand. I just keep ordering them and smoking 'em up!

"Love those Prince Phillips!"
I've smoked all the Macandudos now and Prince Phillip is King! I like the Hyde Park for a short smoke but nothing beats Prince Phillip for a great relaxing smoke and a good read (maybe the Famous Tabacco catalogue?). BTW, I've shopped all the catalogues and Famous has the beat by a mile.

"I now know why Macanudos are rated so high!"
Just started getting back into cigars, and tried a Macanudo Hyde Park from a sampler pack. Everything I read about Macanudos is true! Very mellow taste throughout the whole cigar, very light gray/near white ash which held to almost half way down the cigar, pleasant aroma, and an easy draw. The only thing I could find wrong with the cigar I smoked was some softness in some parts when I checked it over for firmness. Otherwise, a real winner in my book!! A 9 out of 10!
