COO: Nicaragua
Wrapper: Connecticut Shade
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 a mild to medium bodied smoke with mineral and cream notes with a bit of white spice.
Also available in boxes of 20.
