When asked who to collaborate with on an exclusive cigar project, it’s no surprise that Foundation Cigar was there. We know Nick has an immense passion for tobaccos and culture and how important El Güeguense is to Foundation and as a tribute to Nicaraguan heritage. We are excited to share these cigars with our customers.
