The Tabernacle Toro

Description

The Tabernacle is the cigar that showcases Nick Melillo’s (aka Chief of the Broadleaf) passion for the Connecticut Broadleaf. Nick blended this smoke using a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper over a San Andres binder and combined filler using tobacco from Jamistran in Honduras and the Jalapa and Esteli Valleys in Nicaragua. The bold smoke itself is rich and meaty with a roundness of flavor that touches on almost every pleasurable aspect of the palate, with earthy tones, hints of raisin, ripe fruit and steak, and a finish of a fine dark Swiss Chocolate paired with an espresso.
