Rated 93 by Cigar Aficionado and placed in their Top 25 Cigars of 2020, the Highclere Castle Victorian Toro is an exceptionally refined and elegantly balanced cigar. Created by Nick Melillo of Foundation Cigar Company in partnership with Highclere Castle, this blend honours the sophistication and craftsmanship of 19th century cigar culture.

The Victorian Toro features a flawless upper-priming Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, rich with natural oils and glowing with a classic rosado colorado hue. Beneath this lies a rare Brazilian Mata Fina binder, paired with premium Corojo and Criollo fillers sourced from Nicaragua’s famed growing regions of Esteli, Jalapa and Ometepe.

These rare and carefully balanced tobaccos come together to produce a flavour journey that is both delicate and complex, smooth yet deeply expressive.

Flavour Profile

Despite its mild to medium strength, the Victorian Toro is full and complete in flavour, offering impressive evolution through all thirds:

• Oak and caramel

• Maple sweetness

• Black pepper and warm spice

• A creamy, dense texture on the palate

• A beautifully mineral-rich finish

This cigar embodies the elegance and artistry of the Victorian era — an age when cigars accompanied important conversations, diplomacy and moments that shaped history.
