Charter Oak Broadleaf

Charter Oak Broadleaf from Foundation Cigar Company is a value-based brand blended by Nick Melillo and handmade in Estelí, Nicaragua. One of Melillo’s favorite tobaccos to blend with is Connecticut Broadleaf because it’s harvested in his home state. Under the wrapper is a hearty blend of Cuban-seed Nicaraguan long-fillers. Sweet notes of dark chocolate, earth, and hazelnut weave an intriguing tapestry over the palate before hints of coffee and citrus enter the equation. Charter Oak Broadleaf is peppery and pleasant but won’t exhaust your monthly cigar budget when you’re in search of a small-batch brand to add to the coolerdor.
