Description

Foundation Cigars founder Nick Melillo crafted the Foundation Olmec Claro line after visiting Mexico’s San Andres region, home to ancient Olmec civilizations known for tobacco cultivation. The Olmec Claro Doble Corona uses a Mexican San Andres wrapper aged three years, combined with a Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos. This aging process enhances the leaf’s flavor development and structural integrity.

The Olmec Claro Doble Corona measures 7 inches in length with a 54-ring gauge, providing an extended smoking session. Its Mexican San Andres Claro wrapper contributes to a slow-burning, even draw. The blend delivers initial notes of cream and nutmeg, transitioning to cedar, wood, and subtle spice in later stages.

  • Wrapper: Mexican San Andres Claro
  • Binder: Nicaraguan
  • Filler: Nicaraguan and Mexican tobaccos
  • Format: Doble Corona (7" x 54)

The cigar’s expert construction ensures consistent smoke output and balanced flavors. Pairings recommended include aged rum, single-malt whiskey, or espresso. The Foundation Olmec Claro Doble Corona reflects the Olmec legacy through its use of regionally sourced tobacco and meticulous blending techniques.
