Foundation The Wise Man Robusto Cigar – Box of 25

The Foundation The Wise Man Maduro Robusto features a Mexican San Andres wrapper with a mottled brown-black appearance. This 5.5-inch x 50 ring gauge cigar uses Nicaraglongleaf Corojo and Criollo fillers bound by a San Andres leaf, building on the original El Gueguense blend that earned a 93 rating. The updated version swaps its Corojo wrapper for the San Andres Maduro leaf while retaining the Nicaraguan core.

Flavor Characteristics

Pre-light aromas reveal sweet cocoa and earthy undertones. Upon lighting, the Wise Man Maduro Robusto delivers red and black pepper spice alongside coffee and dark fruit notes. Mid-smoke transitions introduce cream textures, followed by dark chocolate and black cherry sweetness in the second half. A meaty char persists throughout the 50-minute smoke time.

Construction & Pairing

The cigar’s triple-cap finish and box-pressed shape contribute to an even burn with dense ash formation. Its medium-full strength profile complements aged bourbon or espresso. The band design updates from the original El Gueguense version, now featuring red and gold accents with “The Wise Man” as the primary branding.
