Description
Calling all Connecticut shade cigar lovers! I have a great one for you today. The Foundation Highclere Castle Edwardian. This cigar comes from Foundation Cigars and Nick Melillo the master blender. Particularly made for the Highclere Castle estate in England. This cigar is a demonstration of royalty. It is something that you expect a king or queen would light up. Nonetheless it is an amazing high class cigar.
The Edwardian showcases a flawless and silky Ecuadorian Connecticut shade wrapper. It is draping over a hefty Brazilian mata fina binder and Nicaraguan filler. This blend works in perfect harmony creating a perfect mild smoking experience. The flavor profile here is heavy with vanilla and earth. It is insanely smooth on the palate with a great mouth feel. Mild cigars like this one are sometimes overlooked because they can be seen as boring. Not this stick. It is bursting with smooth flavors for an amazing mild experience.
The Highclere Castle in England is extremely famous and sees tons of visitors each year. This cigar was originally available for purchase in their gift shop only but is now available for all! If you are in the market for one of the most premium Connecticut cigars around then look no further. The Cigar Thief has got you covered! Try a box today and see why this cigar is associating itself with royalty!
