The Wise Man Maduro - Corona 5" x 48 (Single Cigar)

The Wise Man Maduro Corona – Single Cigar

Available at Buster Cigars | Trusted UK Online Tobacconist

The Wise Man Maduro Corona is far more than a cigar—it is a deeply evocative smoking experience that connects ancient wisdom with the living tradition of Nicaraguan tobacco. Designed for those who appreciate history, ritual, and depth of flavour, this is a cigar that rewards reflection as much as it does the palate.

This acclaimed series marks the first collaboration between Nicholas Melillo of Foundation Cigar Company and legendary master blender José Pepín García of My Father Cigars. It is also the first Foundation cigar produced at the famously selective My Father factory—an unmistakable mark of quality and pedigree.

The Story of The Wise Man

Historical accounts give this cigar its powerful sense of identity. In 1565, Milanese merchant Girolamo Benzoni published History of the New World, documenting that cigars were widely smoked in Nicaragua as early as 1541—not by the Spanish, but by native Nicaraguans and enslaved Ethiopians.

These Ethiopian peoples, tracing lineage back to King Solomon and Menelik, became the first non-native smokers of Nicaraguan tobacco. The Wise Man draws from this extraordinary connection, uniting 3,000 years of wisdom with more than 450 years of Nicaraguan cigar culture. The tobaccos are grown in the same soils where this ancient ritual first took hold, grounding every draw in meaning and tradition.

Maduro Blend

Wrapped in a rich Mexican San Andrés Maduro wrapper, The Wise Man Maduro Corona delivers depth, intensity, and refinement in a compact format. The binder is sourced from Estelí and Jalapa, while the filler blend combines select tobaccos from Estelí, Condega, and Jalapa—chosen to create balance, richness, and complexity.

Medium to full in strength, this cigar offers a bold yet composed profile that develops beautifully over its measured smoking time.

Tasting Notes

Sweet dark chocolate and mocha lead the profile, followed by dried fruits and walnut, delivering a rich, rounded finish with satisfying depth.
