While the wrapper is a high-quality Connecticut Shade, the real standout of the Foundation Highclere Castle is the Brazilian Mata Fina binder. Upon toasting the foot of these flawless cigars, you'll experience a rich and creamy tobacco center, accompanied by hints of baking spices, nuts, and cedar.
"The Highclere Castle Edwardian is hand-rolled in Esteli, Nicaragua, using a Connecticut Shade wrapper, and both Criollo and Corojo from the volcanic soils of Jalapa and the island of Ometepe. The binder is made from Mata Fina, a dark tobacco from Brazil. The blend is finalized with an exclusive hybrid seed Foundation has named Nicadan. The resulting smoke is exceptionally smooth and elegant, with notes of pepper, citrus, leather, and fireplace."
