Foundation Cigars, under the visionary craftsmanship of Nick Melillo, continues to deliver masterful blends, and Aksum is no exception. Inspired by the legend of the Ark of the Covenant, this bold and refined cigar is Foundation's richest blend yet.
Crafted at Tabacalera Fernandez by the renowned AJ Fernandez, Aksum is a medium to full-bodied masterpiece wrapped in a stunning Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper. Beneath this silky leaf lies a Connecticut Broadleaf binder that enhances the cigar’s complexity, while Nicaraguan long-fillers from Estelí and Jalapa provide depth and character. The result? A beautifully balanced smoke filled with notes of sweet wood, cocoa, and a subtle spice that lingers on the palate.
With a flavor profile that’s as legendary as its inspiration, Aksum is a must-try for fans of Foundation Cigars and those seeking a rich, complex, and unforgettable smoking experience.
