Description
The Tabernacle is a special line of cigars from the people over at Foundation Cigars. The Foundation Tabernacle Havana Seed is no different. The original blend was bold, dark, and strong. It has a cult following in the cigar community partly because of its creator, Nick Melillo. Nick is the master blender over at Foundation and has worked for some other big name brands in the industry helping them create some iconic blends. So when he went out on his own and started producing cigars like the Tabernacle, of course there was excitement. The cigar was a huge hit and helped pave the way to Foundation’s success as a company today. For good reason too!
This time around, the Tabernacle has gotten a big change. Instead of a bold Connecticut broadleaf wrapper, they went for a Havana/Connecticut seed wrapper. This change has made the blend lighter and changed up its flavor profile quite a bit. You will notice notes of chocolate, nuts, and a natural sweetness come through strong here. This wrapper is very difficult to produce and took over 3 years to create. But hey, you cannot rush something this good.
If you are a fan of the original, then the Havana Seed is still going to surprise and satisfy you. Nick really knows what he is doing when he blends a cigar and this one is a real home run. If you like complex flavors with real nuances, then look no further. Grab a box of these smokes today and see why people follow Foundation’s every move.

After the huge success of Tabernacle’s original entry, Foundation’s owner put on his mad scientist, Master Blender hat and went to work. With this edition, the wrapper was spawned from a combination of Cuban seed and Connecticut seed tobaccos encasing Nicaraguan and Honduran filler leaves with a San Andreas Mexican binder. The result is a smooth and balanced medium to full bodied stick that slowly increases in intensity as you move along with a pleasant sweetness that’s not overpowering.
