Charter Oak Pasquale CT Broadleaf Corona Gorda 5 1/2 x 48

Cigar Aficionado · Nov 21, 2023 · Cigar Insider

Cloaked in a near-black cover leaf, this box-pressed cigar is topped with a coiled pigtail. Bold impressions of earth and coffee bean are accompanied by touches of pepper and nuts with a chocolate-like sweetness that lingers on the finish. Both the draw and combustion are even.

The Charter Oak Pegnataro has an excellent start. The first inch of each cigar was awesome. Rich flavors that were easy to identify and perhaps an even longer list of flavors that were too integrated for me to identify. Unfortunately, the amped up signature that I associate most with AJ Fernandez shows up too soon. Sometimes this works, but in this case, it didn’t. If Melillo and Fernández can find a way to delay that “turn up to 11” part of the profile until the final inch or two inches, this is a completely different cigar and one that I would probably love to smoke. Unfortunately, what’s left after the profile got turned up to 11 wasn't all that enjoyable.

Naturally, I gravitated toward the Pasquale which revolves around the Connecticut Broadleaf seed. This line of cigars...

Foundation Charter Oak Especiales Pasquale

Developing Palates · May 24, 2024 · October 2023

The Foundation Charter Oak Especiales Pasquale had a nice start, with the bakers chocolate providing a nice accent. The second third dropped a level as the chocolate departed and the earth picked up and the profile remained at that level the rest of the way. Overall, a fairly average smoking experience and not something I'd really see myself returning to.
