Foundation The Upsetters Small Axe 4"1/2 * 40

The Foundation The Upsetters Small Axe is a medium-strength, small panatela that expertly employs a technique known as “Caribbean atmospheric herbal fusion.” This centuries old infusion method greatly enhances the flavor profile. The cigar’s smooth, light-tan USA Connecticut Shade wrapper covers a Nicaraguan binder and long-filler leaves composed of Nicaraguan and Jamaican Cow Tongue tobaccos. This smooth, flavorful blend combines with the infusion process to provide a unique smoking experience and offer up rich notes of citrus, floral, and spice with an underlying sweetness. Handmade in Nicaragua, the Foundation The Upsetters Small Axe is perfect for cigar enthusiasts who want to broaden their palate’s flavor profile.

Because of a very hot and sunny summer, the tobacco is shade grown to make the leaf more delicate with few veins and even surface.
