Foundation The Tabernacle Broadleaf Torpedo Cigar – Box of 24

The Tabernacle Broadleaf Torpedo features a 4½" x 52 torpedo shape with a dark, oily USA Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper. This leaf originates from the Connecticut River Valley's mineral-rich soil. The cigar employs a Mexican San Andres binder combined with Nicaraguan and Honduran filler tobaccos, all hand-rolled at AJ Fernandez’s Tabacalera Fernandez factory in Nicaragua.

Flavor Profile & Burn Characteristics

Initial draws reveal dominant dark chocolate and espresso notes through the first third. Mid-smoke transitions introduce earthy leather and oak wood flavors, supported by Nicaraguan filler tobacco's spice elements. The final third develops black pepper accents without overwhelming heat. The tapered torpedo head concentrates smoke output for intensified flavor delivery.

• Consistent combustion line with minimal touch-ups required
• Firm ash retention exceeding 1" segments
• Draw resistance optimized for 90-120 minute smoking duration

Pairing & Strength Considerations

This full-bodied cigar complements barrel-aged spirits effectively. The Broadleaf wrapper's natural sweetness balances high-proof bourbons, while Honduran filler's spice notes align with aged rums. Box purchases of 24 units maintain 65-68% humidity for optimal cellaring potential.
