FOUNDATION OLMEC CLARO: A Fusion of Ancient Tradition and Modern Craftsmanship
Oxford Cigar Company is pleased to introduce the Foundation Olmec Claro, a cigar that perfectly embodies the rich history and premium tobacco cultivation of the tropical lowlands of modern-day Mexican states. This cigar is not just a smoking experience but a journey through time, celebrating the legacy of one of the oldest seed varieties in the world.
EXQUISITE SAN ANDRÉS NEGRO WRAPPER TOBACCO:
The Olmec Claro is distinguished by its San Andrés Negro wrapper, sourced directly from the fertile volcanic soil of the Olmec heartland. This wrapper is meticulously fermented at low temperatures, a process that preserves its natural oils and imparts rich flavors to the cigar. The result is a wrapper that is not only visually stunning but also enhances the overall smoking experience with its depth and character.
FINEST NICARAGUAN FILLER TOBACCOS:
At the core of the Olmec Claro are the finest Nicaraguan filler tobaccos, carefully selected from the renowned regions of Esteli and Jalapa valleys. These tobaccos undergo a three-year bale aging process after fermentation, ensuring a level of maturity and flavor complexity that is unparalleled.
FULL-BODIED, RICHLY FLAVORED BLEND:
The blend of the Foundation Olmec Claro delivers a full-bodied smoking experience that tantalizes the palate with rich flavors of cacao, dark espresso, and spice. Despite its robust profile, the cigar maintains a smoothness that is never overwhelming, making it a perfect choice for both seasoned smokers and those looking to explore fuller flavors.
A TRIBUTE TO ANCIENT CIVILIZATION:
Smoking an Olmec Claro is not just enjoying a premium cigar; it’s honoring the rich tobacco heritage of the Olmec civilization. Each cigar is a blend of ancient tradition and modern cigar-making artistry, offering a unique and satisfying smoking experience.

I expected a lighter bodied cigar however, it was damn good. I will definitely try the maduro since this one was so tasty. You could smoke this one all day in the morning with coffee or for dessert really enjoyed it.

It’s a great cigar, good flavors and great construction. All foundation cigars are good, you can’t go wrong. The Maduro version is just as good as the Claro.

Foundation’s Olmec line has impressed me. I thoroughly enjoyed the Maduro variant but kept seeing reviews that the Claro blend was the best of the two. I saw there were a few more Claro available from Oxford so I picked up a 5’er. Notes of cedar wood, earth, red pepper flake, and an organic vegetal note in the first third. The finish offers some lingering mild baking spice and flavors similar to unsweetened ice tea. The second third is mixture of the wood and leather with the tea notes still there. The soft box press is constructed very well, the ash holding on solidly. The smoke bellows and the retrohale offers white pepper tones. The last third has roasted mixed nuts and earthY notes. I was sipping water a lot with this one, very dry on the palate. A very enjoyable smoke, but I think I still like the Maduro even more!
