| Menelik by Foundation Cigars
The Menelik cigars first began cropping up in 2016, being rolled in extremely small batches and sold only at exclusive Foundation events across the country. Much to the delight of cigar enthusiasts, Nick made the cigars more widely available in 2019, with small batches of 1,000 boxes being rolled on a quarterly basis. Each size makes use of a select Mexican San Andrés maduro wrapper, a Corojo '99 binder, and Nicaraguan fillers from each of the country's primary growing regions. Gently box-pressed and boasting an impressive pigtail cap, the Foundation Menelik cigar offers a medium-full intensity, lingering on the palate with rich notes of earth, baker's cocoa, black pepper, and sweet mocha.
