基恩基金会烟草公司已经停止了其在尼加拉瓜阿甘诺萨叶工厂生产的原始El Güegüense和Wise Man Maduro系列香烟的生产。但是，取而代之的是有了一些新的产品。这家总部位于康涅狄格州的公司转向了加西亚家族，在尼加拉瓜埃斯特利市加西亚的工厂——My Father Cigars生产新的Wise Man Corojo和Wise Man Maduro。
智者科罗乔（Wise Man Corojo）采用尼加拉瓜科罗乔烟叶卷制，而马杜罗（Maduro）则采用来自圣安德烈斯（San Andrés）的墨西哥盖叶。正如我的父亲雪茄的制作风格以及古巴典型的卷制技术，两者都使用两个烟纸卷制成型：一个来自埃斯特利（Estelí），另一个来自哈拉帕（Jalapa）。填充物是埃斯特利、康德加（Condega）和哈拉帕尼加拉瓜烟草的组合。

Foundation Cigar Co. has ceased production of its original El Güegüense and Wise Man Maduro lines, which were made in Nicaragua at Aganorsa Leaf. But something is coming in its place. The Connecticut-based company has turned to the Garcia family to produce the new Wise Man Corojo and Wise Man Maduro at My Father Cigars, the Garcia’s factory in Estelí, Nicaragua..
Cigar Aficionado spoke to brand owner Nicholas Melillo who was clear that these two lines are completely new blends and bear little resemblance to the originals. While the tobacco in the cigars is still primarily Nicaraguan, it comes from different seeds grown at different farms. Foundation no longer has anything made at Aganorsa Leaf (formerly called the TABSA factory).
Wise Man Corojo
The Wise Man Corojo is made with a Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper while Maduro is made with a Mexican cover leaf from San Andrés. As is the construction style of My Father Cigars (and the typical rolling technique of Cuba), both are rolled in two binders: one from Estelí and one from Jalapa. The filler is a combination of Nicaraguan tobacco from Estelí, Condega and Jalapa.
Both brands come in four sizes: Double Corona, measuring 7 inches by 54 ring gauge ($13.50); Toro, at 6 by 52 ($12.50); Robusto, at 5 1/2 by 50 ($11.50); and a 5-by-48 Corona ($10.50). All are offered in 20-count boxes and will debut at this month’s PCA trade show in Las Vegas before shipping to retailers in mid-April.
“While it’s bittersweet to say goodbye to the El Güegüense brand, it holds a special place in the history of Foundation Cigars,” Melillo says. “We believe it will become one of our most collectible and sought-after cigars.”
