Foundation Cigar Company has begun shipping its most anticipated release, The Tabernacle Knight Commander, a Perfecto with a Connecticut Broadleaf Wrapper. This cigar pays homage to the rich Ethiopian heritage and embodies the spirit of philanthropy.Â
The inspiration behind Tabernacle Knight Commander derives from a prestigious honor the Ethiopian Crown Council bestowed upon Nicholas Melillo, owner of Foundation Cigar Company. Melillo was humbled to receive the title of Knight Commander of The Ethiopian Star of Honor. The Order was established by Emperor Menelik in 1889 as an order of Knighthood of the Ethiopian Empire to foreign and domestic civilian and military officials and individuals for service to the country. It is with great pride and reverence that the Tabernacle Knight Commander pays tribute to this noble accolade.For more information, click here.
