Foundation Charter Oak Connecticut Shade Toro
- Size: 6 x 52
- Strength: Mild-Medium
Long before Dutch settlers came to our shores, the Native Americans cultivated tobacco and held councils beneath the massive branches of the Charter Oak tree. It is a sacred tree and is a long standing symbol of American independence. Charter Oak Cigars hail from the same fertile valley in Connecticut that native son Nicholas Melillo was born and raised in. These cigars preserve and celebrate that rich local history.
The cigar is rolled in a silky Connecticut Shade wrapper, a Sumatran binder and Nicaraguan fillers. This combination of tobacco gives the smoker amild to medium bodied smoke.

Chart Oak builds very well constructed Cigars, Light to Medium profile is most enjoyable to me. The construction is superb and burns with a laser sharp edge. Some sweet undertones and a leathery/caramel taste with a light spattering of coffee bean over tones. Easily keep 1-3 boxes in my humidor at all times. It is most easy to recommend to any level of Cigar smoker.
