Foundation Charter Oak Maduro

Foundation Charter Oak reflects founder Nick Melillo's connection to his home state of Connecticut and its historic tobacco tradition. The name honors the famed Charter Oak tree, a symbol of heritage and independence, as well as the Connecticut River Valley where tobacco has been cultivated for generations. The line is offered with either a Connecticut Shade or Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, paired with Nicaraguan fillers from Jalapa and Esteli. The profile is balanced and composed, presenting a creamy foundation supported by notes of chocolate, roasted nuts, and measured pepper.
