Description
Macanudo Inspirado Orange is the first of the company’s hugely successful boutique entries. To begin with, literally everyone knows the name Macanudo. However, Macanudo was originally the name created by the makers of the Punch Cuban cigars. In 1971, General Cigar introduced Macanudo as a stand alone brand and the rest is cigar history! It was originally made on the Island of Jamaica under the supervision of Master Blender, Ramón Cifuentes. Production shifted from Jamaica to the Dominican Republic in October 2000 where it remains to this day.
Unlike the traditional Cafe series, this style was more medium bodied with a smooth character and more moderate price. The success of the “Orange” entry led to the additions of Black, Red, White and Green Inspirado brands. Since 2018 Inspirado Orange has earned countless awards. To this day it is firmly solidified as a humidor must-have worldwide.
Receiving a 92 rating from Cigar Aficionado caught the eyes of many non Macanudo smokers to say the very least. Their description is spot on. ” Inspirado Orange is simply a great cigar producing a rich, buttery smoke with enriching leather and mesquite qualities and a bright finish of almonds and black pepper.” Getting a 93 from Blind Man’s Puff backs up the accolades as well. “This was an enjoyable cigar from start to finish.” So if you’ve never tried one of these highly rated cigars, now’s you chance.
To sum up, Macanudo Inspirado Orange is available in 5 popular sizes of 20 count boxes. There’s also 3×20 sized Mini Cigarillos in tins to choose from.

Rich Cucharo –
Beginning in Cuba , Macanudo has been an ever present brand standing the test of time. All of us probably started with and or returned to them as an oasis for taking a mellow break. When Macanudo entered the boutique market they quietly introduced the Inspirado Series in Europe. As it made its way to the US it received a 92 rating which caught the eyes of many non Macanudo smokers.
Unlike the traditional Cafe series, this style was mild to medium in body with a smooth character and moderate price. The success of the “Orange” entry led to the additions of Black, Red and White White Inspirado brands. Check out the others as well!
