Full Description
The Foundation The Tabernacle Havana Seed CT No. 142 Toro Box of 24 showcases one of the most distinctive and ambitious blends in the Foundation portfolio. Created by Nicholas Melillo and handcrafted at AJ Fernandez in Nicaragua, this cigar highlights the rare Connecticut Havana Seed No. 142 wrapper, a tobacco developed through years of cultivation and extensive fermentation to deliver exceptional depth, complexity, and character.
While many Connecticut-grown tobaccos are known for their mild profile, the Havana Seed CT No. 142 takes a different approach. Rich, flavorful, and layered, it delivers a unique combination of sweetness, spice, earth, and natural tobacco richness that stands apart from both traditional Connecticut Shade and Broadleaf cigars.
The Toro 6 x 52 format allows the blend to fully develop throughout the smoking experience, producing a long, balanced smoke with excellent transitions and complexity.
From the first draw, expect notes of cedar, earth, cocoa, and black pepper. As the cigar develops, flavors of leather, baking spices, roasted nuts, espresso, and natural sweetness emerge, creating a profile that is bold yet refined.
