Tabernacle

The Tabernacle line from Nicholas Melillo’s Foundation Cigar Company is a deeply personal tribute to the history and sacredness of tobacco. Melillo, a renowned blender, is particularly passionate about Connecticut-grown leaf, and The Tabernacle showcases his mastery of this prized tobacco. The brand is revered by connoisseurs for its complexity, richness, and its reverent approach to blending.


Here at Stixx Cigar House, we are proud to showcase the two celebrated expressions of The Tabernacle. Discover the original Tabernacle Broadleaf, a full-bodied smoke that uses a dark Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper to deliver rich notes of dark chocolate, espresso, earth, and red pepper. Or, for a different profile, experience the Tabernacle Havana Seed CT, which features a unique wrapper that provides a complex smoke with notes of cedar, spice, and a natural sweetness.
