Foundation Olmec

Foundation Olmec Claro showcases owner Nick Melillo deep appreciation for history. Considered “the mother” culture of Mesoamerica, it is thought that they were first to smoke cigars. In honor of this ancient civilization, the blend puts a spotlight on Mexican San Andres tobaccos sourced from the rich soils they once populated. The 5×50 Robusto wraps a Tuxtla grown San Andres wrapper around tobacco from Nicaragua that has been bale-aged for three years prior to rolling. Notes of earth, cedar, cabinet spice, buttery coffee bean, and semi-sweet toffee are underscored by a delicious sweetness delivered through its medium-full bodied smoke. Available in an array of formats to suit your clients’ preferences, 12 of the beautiful brown sticks are housed in traditional wooden boxes displaying Olmec artifact inspired artwork.
