Aksum Maduro by Foundation Corona Gorda (5 1/2x48)

Foundation has already amassed numerous accolades in its short time in the cigar industry. And the mastermind behind it? Nicholas Melillo. He may be relatively young, but he’s already amassed 20+ years in the cigar industry. Starting at just 18, Melillo has risen from working in a cigar shop to helping blend cigars at Drew Estate, to starting Foundation.

Produced by AJ Fernandez, Aksum is the rebranded version of Foundation’s Metapa. The blend consists of Nicaraguan tobaccos encased inside a Connecticut broadleaf binder and finished inside an Ecuadorian Sumatra maduro wrapper. Expect a bold, rich experience ripe with notes of cocoa, cedar, and spice on the finish.

Foundation Aksum Corona Gorda Claro & Maduro and Tabernacle No. 142 Goliath

Written by Eric E Estes(UncleE3) on Jun 4th 2025

These Foundation Aksum Corona Gorda Claro & Maduro Cigars, along with the Tabernacle Havana seed Connecticut Boadleaf No. 142 Goliath, are absolutely “Top Shelf” in my opinion and Atlantic Cigar exercises the utmost care in their packing, shipping, pricing and customer service interactions. If you were to ask me which one is my favorite? My honest answer would be”The one I’m smoking at the time”. Altogether I have 8 boxes: of these Foundation Cigars 3 ea. Aksum Claro and Maduro and 2 ea. Tabernacle No. 142 Goliath. All except 5 individual cigars are resting comfortably in ziplocks back in their original boxes. My mouth literally waters when I think about smoking any one of them. Thank you Atlantic Cigar!!! Signed: UncleE3, Atlantic Cigar customer for life.
