Foundation Olmec
With over two decades of experience, Nick Melillo of Foundation Cigar Company continues to redefine the boutique cigar world. Drawing from his years at Drew Estate and a lifetime of global tobacco exploration, Nick’s creations are synonymous with exceptional quality, flavor, and balance.
The Olmec pays homage to one of Mesoamerica’s most influential civilizations, predating the Mayans and Aztecs. The star of this blend is the Mexican San Andres leaf, grown in the same region that was once home to the Olmec tribes. Crafted to perfection, this full-bodied blend is a tribute to the rich history and terroir of this region.
