Foundation Charter Oak Shade
From the mid 12th century until 1856, a massive oak tree stood in Hartford, Connecticut. The tree was planted by Native Americans as a ceremonial symbol of peace and it later went on to have significant meaning for early American settlers - hiding the Charter of 1662 within a cavity in the oak when King James II came in search of it. This legendary tale prompted the “Charter Oak” to become known as one of our country’s greatest symbols of American independence.
Foundation Cigar Co. draws inspiration from this peculiar oak for their highly anticipated third release. Nick Melillo, creator of Foundation, is a native to the Connecticut region and not-so-coincidentally has become known over the years for his skill in blending Connecticut Broadleaf-wrapped cigars.
Charter Oak brings Nick back to his hometown, creating a Connecticut smoking experience for smokers who enjoy either a mild to medium profile. Teaming with the famed Tabacalera Fernandez factory (owned by AJ Fernandez), and using Nicaraguan tobaccos at their core, this line offers a lighter Ecuadorian Connecticut shade-wrapped blend.

JNJACOB NEELY - Foundation Charter Oak Shade LonsdaleMy favorite of the charter oaks... Good any time of the day. I especially enjoy the Rothschild and Petite Corona.
-
JPJesse Pettry - Foundation Charter Oak Shade Toro (Verified buyer)My favorite Connecticut Shade cigar, it hits way above its pay grade. The flavor and feel is stronger and more pronounced than many others I’ve tried. Perfect morning cigar with a cup of coffee. Another I’m sure to keep on hand!
-
ABAdam Balauskas - Foundation Charter Oak Shade Toro (Verified buyer)Hands down one of my favorite cigars in this price range. I always make sure to have some of these on hand for myself and to introduce people into cigars.

TMTony McDowell - Foundation Charter Oak Shade ToroGreat quality, burn and smoke output. Flavors are right on point
-
JPJudah Pelligra - Foundation Charter Oak Shade GrandeThese are so good and for the price I almost feel guilty for whoever is probably losing money selling them this cheap. Kind of kidding, but they are really really good and then you consider the price and I don’t know if it gets better for the price.
