Home is an important anchor for us all, and Foundation's Charter Oak cigar pays homage to Nick Melillo's home state of Connecticut. This cigar features tobaccos grown in the Connecticut River Valley and is a tribute to Melillo's grandfather, a WWII vet who enjoyed Connecticut tobaccos. Comprised of either a Connecticut Shade, or a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper and fillers from the Jalapa and Estelí regions of Nicaragua, the Charter Oak elicits a creamy flavor accented with chocolate, and hints of roasted nuts and pepper.
