Foundation Askum Claro

The Foundation Aksum Claro represents the lighter, creamier expression of the acclaimed Aksum line, offering a medium-bodied, luxurious profile wrapped in a silky Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade leaf. Developed by Nick Melillo—the mind behind Foundation Cigar Company—Aksum Claro delivers refinement without sacrificing the rich heritage and complexity that Foundation is known for.

Handcrafted in Nicaragua with aged Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos, the Aksum Claro balances smoothness with flavor intensity. Tasting notes include vanilla cream, toasted almond, cedar, white pepper, citrus zest, and honeyed floral tones. The result is a cigar that's approachable for newer smokers, yet elegant and satisfying for seasoned aficionados who appreciate subtlety and structure.

Now available at The Tobacconist of Greenwich, the Foundation Aksum Claro is ideal for morning enjoyment, elegant gatherings, or moments when only the smoothest expression of craftsmanship will do.
