FOUNDATION OLMEC CLARO CORONA GORDA CIGARS
Foundation Olmec Claro Corona Gorda pays tribute to the first cigar culture and does it with style. The heart of this blend starts in the tropical lowlands of Veracruz, Tabasco, and San Andrés Tuxtla. Farmers grow the legendary San Andrés Negro wrapper in rich, volcanic soil.
The leaf then goes through a slow, low-temperature fermentation that preserves its natural oils and deep flavour. Nicholas Melillo perfected this approach in the early 2000s and brings it to peak form here.
Inside, you get select Nicaraguan tobaccos from Estelí and Jalapa. After fermentation, the filler rests in bales for three years before rolling. That patience shows in the smoke.
The profile lands light to medium in body yet bursts with character. You’ll taste white pepper and charred oak first. Then nutmeg, cacao, and light espresso join in. A malty grain thread ties it together, while mineral hints and an earthy, leathery finish linger.
Construction feels dialled in. The Foundation Olmec Claro Corona Gorda format delivers focus, balance, and a clean draw. Fans chase this cigar for good reason. Shops sell out often, and critics agree, with top-tier accolades from major publications. Stock your humidor from our cigar shop and enjoy a refined New World classic.
