Description

Handmade in Nicaragua, the The Wise Man Maduro Toro is a San Andrés-wrapped toro from Foundation Cigar Co. The Wise Man is Foundation’s El Güegüense, named after a satirical Nicaraguan folk play recognized by UNESCO.

It blends a Mexican San Andrés wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and filler at a medium to full body, leading with cocoa, espresso, black pepper, and a sweet, almost-syrupy dark earth. At 6 by 52, it burns cool and even.

San Andres turns up on so many Nicaraguan and Dominican cigars because it does one job better than any local leaf: it takes a maduro fermentation without breaking, and it comes out tasting of chocolate rather than char.

Pairs well with bourbon, espresso, or porter.
