Olmec Claro

Foundation Cigars brand founder Nick Melillo pays tribute to the ancient Mesoamerican people of Mexico’s San Andrés region with Olmec Claro. A toothy San Andrés wrapper leaf embraces a hearty interior of vintage Nicaraguan long-fillers from Estelí and Jalapa. Olmec Claro imparts notes of almond, malted milk chocolate, and coffee bean before hints of crème brûlée punctuate the cigar’s medium to full-bodied profile in a collection of popular sizes. Slow fermentation at lower temperatures ensures the tobaccos retain their naturally flavorful oils before the finished product is rolled. Following its debut in 2022, the blend was rated 93 points in Cigar Aficionado. Olmec Claro is handmade at the AJ Fernandez factory in Estelí, Nicaragua.
