Metapa Claro Toro

THIS ITEM CANNOT BE SHIPPED INTO NEW YORK

Foundation, with its abundance of accolades in the cigar industry, is the brainchild of Nicholas Melillo. Despite his relatively young age, Melillo boasts over 20 years of experience in the field. Starting at just 18 and working his way up from a humble cigar shop employee to blending cigars at Drew Estate, Melillo has now launched Foundation. The master blender behind this brand has teamed up with AJ Fernandez to create "Metapa" - a tribute to the poetic essence of Nicaragua, as described by Melillo himself. This blend pays homage to renowned Nicaraguan poet Rubén Darío and takes its name from his birthplace. Inside the Ecuadorian Sumatra claro wrapper lies a bold blend of Nicaraguan tobaccos bound by a Connecticut broadleaf binder, promising a robust, luxurious smoke with hints of leather, earth, and spice on the finish.
