Foundation Charter Oak Especiales Pegnataro

The Foundation Charter Oak Especiales Pegnataro pays tribute to Nicholas Melillo's grandfather with a blend built around the smooth, nuanced character of Connecticut Shade tobacco. Its Connecticut Shade wrapper complements a Nicaraguan binder grown in Jalapa and filler tobaccos from Jalapa and Estelí. In the 5½ x 48 format, this medium-bodied cigar delivers an evolving mix of cedar, barnyard hay, sage, and browned butter. Pegnataro combines regional tradition with Foundation's attention to blending, making it a distinctive choice for smokers who appreciate balance and layered flavor.
