The Macanudo Ascot is a great tasting cigar for when you are short on time and would like to enjoy a great flavored smoke.

The Macanudo Ascot is an excellent small cigar for a relaxing 20-25 minute smoke. I highly recommend it, especially for new cigar smokers.

"Not just a miniature of the real thing"
While I really enjoy the macanudo cafe hyde park, even though it's a bit mild, these do not really have a similar taste. I find them to be quite harsh, and have more in common with a ciagarette than just their size. A major disappointment, considering I was hoping for a little hyde park to have during lunch.

"You've gotta try this one !"
All I can say is MAC MILD! This little guy does the trick when all you have is 20 minutes and a craving for a Mac. My only complaint is being so small and mild, one tends to hot box this little guy. Just take your time and enjoy.

"Terrible"
Wow, what a waste of money. Out of the entire tin, only 1 had was 'drawable', and even that one did not taste good.

"a gem"
I have smoked many of these little gems(if the wife new she would kill me)and must say they are one of the best short smokes on the market,sweet aroma before light up which continues after light up,so easy to smoke(a sweet aroma fills the room)easy draw with plumes of smoke.

"Smooth, yet bitter..."
The only complaint I have is that the taste was somewhat bitter, particularly at the beginning. Construction and draw were excellent, with nice, long ash, especially for a small cigar. Smoke volume was decent as well. Very smooth body...

"Not bad for a wee lad"
Sometimes you just want a little smoke, and these aren't too bad. You could probably upgrade to a better cigar, that was a little better value but these ain't bad standbys. You can find em just about any smoke shop.

"Intro to Cigars 101"
Yet for find one that's plugged...Wrapper has a dryer paper feel...rough sheen...caps a bit shoddy...I'm used to be a cigerette smoker, nice transition cigar...Found this to have a decent although plain taste. Merit is found in its smooth smoke, but again lacks substance...mildish, unique. Take it for what it is.

"decent, but not as good as the Maduro"
I bought a tin of these after buying and trying the Maduro versions. These have a typical cigar smoke, and it's decent at best. Nowhere near as good as the Maduros though. Good to have around if you want a quick smoke.

This is a good little cigar for a short smoke. These have a good taste for casual smokers, the burn was pretty even too.
