Last year, Foundation Cigar Company premiered the Perfecto extensions to its highly successful Tabernacle Broadleaf in both the David (5 x 54) and Goliath (5 x 58).

For Foundation’s latest offering, the two-size Tabernacle expansion is being extended to the Havana Seed CT-142.

“The Havana Seed Connecticut is extremely rare and unlike any other tobacco in the world,” said master blender Nicholas Melillo. This historical seed was developed by Connecticut tobacco growers to provide greater resistance and durability. Due to the incredible amount of oil from the plant, the leaf takes three years to undergo fermentation. The results make for a delicious medium to full-bodied blend with hints of cedar, spice, rich earthiness and natural sweetness.

The release will again feature the artwork of Foundation’s art director Thief Operandi with its Ethiopian Coptic take on the timeless biblical underdog story.
