Friends don't let friends smoke Macanoodles... ...though I have heard the Vintage Maduro's are pretty good.

The best way for you to smoke those cigars is have good company, with a nice drink (regardless what it is - just make it good) in a place that's relaxing. No better feeling in the world...

But seriously - enjoy the Macanoodles, but find something you like other than them. If you like Maduro's, look for the Fuente Hemingway Maduro's. same money - much better.
