Product Specifications

Connecticut Broadleaf and the Tabernacle Blend

The Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper is the defining component of this cigar. Foundation pairs it with a Mexican San Andrés binder and a multi-region filler blend, bringing together tobacco from Nicaragua’s Estelí and Jalapa regions and Honduras’s Jamastrán Valley.

The dark Broadleaf leaf is commonly associated with a rich, earthy character. Here, the supporting binder and mixed-country filler distinguish the blend from a Nicaraguan-only filler combination. Browse Maduro cigars for other options featuring dark-wrapper profiles.

Why the 5.25" × 46 Corona Format Matters

At 5.25 inches long with a 46 ring gauge, the Corona offers a slimmer format than a Toro or Gordo. Its proportions make it a useful option for shoppers who prefer a traditional cigar shape without choosing a larger-diameter vitola.

For shoppers comparing sizes within this line, the Foundation The Tabernacle Broadleaf Robusto (5.0" × 50) has a shorter length and wider ring gauge. You can also compare other Corona cigars by size and blend.

Strength and Tasting Profile

TRP classifies this cigar as Medium-Full, while Foundation’s official page describes the Tabernacle CT Broadleaf line as Full. That difference should be kept in mind when comparing strength labels across cigar retailers.

Retailer descriptions commonly associate the Corona with dark chocolate, espresso, nutty notes, earth, spice, and a degree of sweetness. These are tasting impressions rather than a guaranteed sequence of flavors; individual perception can vary with storage and smoking conditions. Shoppers can compare it with other cigars in the Medium-Full collection.

Foundation’s Tabernacle Line and Its Story

Foundation Cigar Company presents The Tabernacle as a cigar line rooted in heritage, faith, and tradition. Its name and presentation reference the sacred dwelling described in Hebrew scripture, while the packaging features Haile Selassie, the former Ethiopian emperor whose lineage is part of the line’s historical narrative.

For this Broadleaf version, the storytelling is matched with a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper and a blend spanning Honduras and Nicaragua. Customers considering other expressions of the line can compare the Foundation The Tabernacle Broadleaf Toro (6.0" × 52), which offers a longer format.

Buying, Pairing, and Storage Considerations

The Corona is available on the supplied TRP listing as a single cigar, a five-pack, or a box of 24. A single is a practical choice for trying the format, while a multipack or box suits customers who already know they enjoy the blend.

The reported chocolate, coffee, and spice character suggests pairing possibilities such as espresso, dark-roast coffee, aged rum, or bourbon. These are suggestions, not manufacturer-prescribed pairings.

To help preserve the cigar’s condition after purchase, keep it in a properly maintained humidor and avoid abrupt changes in temperature or humidity.
