Foundation Highclere Castle

Description

A Royal Collaboration

Highclere Castle is named after the famous British castle featured in Downton Abbey. But that’s not the only royal tie on this release from Foundation Cigar Company — the cigar is also blended and rolled under the watchful eye of the reigning king of Nicaraguan tobacco, AJ Fernandez. Though he’s normally known for his feisty Nicaraguan blends, here AJ shows his skills with mellower cigars. 

Though the wrapper here is a fine Connecticut Shade, the Brazilian Mata Fina binder is the true star of the show. Toasting the foot on these perfect specimens, you’ll find a creamy core of tobacco, with notes of baking spices, nuts, and cedar. Highclere Castle is without a doubt the smoothest cigar from Foundation, so do yourself a favor and order a box ASAP.

Purchased this cigar from a local cigar shop featuring a Foundation Cigars rep. I'm a novice cigar smoker, smoking pipes for a few years before trying this novel mode of tobacco consumption. I tried this cigar with coffee as I'd never had a cigar and coffee prior to this venture. How delightful! the 1st 1/3rd was creamy with a hint of citrus that continued through to the middle. Light on the palate but flavorful; earthy, marzipan flavor. The last 1/3rd had a sweetness that was subtle and satisfying like a first kiss at prom. There may even have been a little spice. I enjoyed this cigar and coffee encounter. The coffee is a Blue Skull blend from Mexico in case anyone is curious.

A friend recommended I try this cigar, which is apparently related to a British TV show. It is an excellent light to mid-bodied cigar, in which I detect nut and wood tones my friend cited banana and cream tones, though my palate doesn't detect these. I've experienced no issues with the wrapper, having an nice even burn and consistent draw. Normally this would lead me to rate this as a 4 star, however, every friend I've shared one with has inquired about them later.
