Foundation Charter Oak Connecticut Shade Grande cigars are mild to medium-bodied with a Connecticut Shade wrapper, a Sumatra binder, and Estelí and Jalapa Nicaraguan filler tobacco. A Connecticut wrapper was chosen to represent Nick Melillo's home state and pay homage to a sacred tree known as the Charter Oak. Before Dutch settlers arrived, Native Americans used to plant their tobacco under the branches of this special tree. The tobacco in this blend comes from the same valley in which Nicholas Melillo was born and raised in. Celebrate local history with this cigar!

These cigars come in beautiful wooden boxes with the Charter Oak tree design carved onto the lid. Hand-rolled at the Tabacos Valle de Jalapa (TABSA) factory in Nicaragua, each cigar features a ring with the blend logo on it and is packaged in counts of 20. In fact, Cigar Aficionado proclaimed it a #1 best value cigar! If you're looking for the perfect combination of value, high quality, and history - this is the blend for you. This is definitely one of Foundation's best creations. Buy a box today of Foundation Charter Oak Connecticut Shade Grande Cigars!
