Charter Oak Shade Rothschild by Foundation Cigar Company is a smooth, creamy, and beautifully balanced cigar that embodies the spirit of classic Connecticut tobacco. Created by master blender Nicholas Melillo, this cigar pays homage to his home state and its long-standing tobacco-growing tradition, delivering refined flavor and superb value in a perfectly crafted small-format smoke.

Handcrafted at Tabacalera A.J. Fernandez in Estelí, Nicaragua, this 4.5 x 50 Rothschild features a silky Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper over a Nicaraguan Habano binder and a blend of aged Nicaraguan fillers from Estelí and Jalapa. The result is a mild-to-medium-bodied cigar with excellent balance, consistency, and aroma.

The flavor profile opens with notes of sweet cream, toasted almonds, and cedar, followed by hints of vanilla, honey, and gentle spice. As the cigar progresses, nuances of buttered toast and coffee develop, leading to a smooth, mellow finish that lingers softly with refined sweetness.
