Foundation Metapa Maduro

Inspired by the legendary Nicaraguan poet Rubén Darío — the father of the modernismo literary movement — Metapa is a heartfelt tribute from Nick Melillo and Foundation Cigar Co. Darío’s hometown, once called Metapa and now known as Ciudad Darío, serves as both the namesake and the soul of this unique release.

In a bold first for Foundation, Metapa features an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper — a leaf never before used in the brand’s portfolio. Beneath it lies Foundation’s signature Connecticut Broadleaf binder and a rich core of Nicaraguan long-fillers. The result is a smooth, luxurious smoke brimming with character: think dark cocoa, soft pepper, and a gentle wave of baking spices — all wrapped in thick, aromatic smoke.

Both a celebration of artistry and a landmark in Foundation’s blending history, Metapa is as refined as the poetry that inspired it. A cigar this elegant doesn’t just honor a legend — it invites you to enjoy a masterpiece in every draw.
