El Güegüense or “The Wise Man” is the debut cigar and initial line blended under Master Cigar Maker Nicholas Melillo for
Foundation Cigar Company. A true Nicaraguan puro, each bale of tobacco that goes into this cigar is hand selected by
Melillo with the filler leaves coming from a special vintage crop from years 2011 and 2012. Melillo is personally
overseeing production at the Tobacco Valle de Jalapa (TABSA) facility with production being limited to 225 units
per day. El Güegüense is aged in cedar humidors for 30 days before being shipped from Nicaragua ensuring The
Wise Man honors the Nicaraguan people, land and culture.
