Ashton is a unique brand in the premium cigar industry. They are one of the biggest premium cigar brands in the world, but they don’t own a factory. Instead they have deep relationships with their manufacturing partners. These ties are so deep that if they ask for a new blend or special edition, it is almost certainly met with a yes. And these aren’t some no name partners either. Their manufacturing partners are the Fuentes for their Ashton line, and Pepin Garcia for their La Aroma de Cuba and San Cristobal lines. Through these two partnerships, they have created a dynamic portfolio of premium cigars that can cover the palate of just about any cigar smoker. Their cigars run the gamut of flavor, strength, and body. It’s no wonder Ashton is one of the biggest brands in the industry.
Ashton Aged Maduro cigars are rare because of its selected and extremely limited Connecticut broad leaf wrapper. Many a wrapper leaf is picked, but few are chosen for our Ashton Aged Maduro. The initial sweet taste comes from the wrapper, but once lit, the cigar becomes rich and nutty much like a great Madeira or Tawny Port, whose distinct flavor comes from aging in Sherry finished French oak barrels. Our Ashton Aged Maduro's rich distinct flavor comes from the never hurried natural fermentation of the wrapper, which encourages its natural sweetness. The wrapper and aged filler creates a rich and complex flavor elevating the Ashton Aged Maduro to a class all its own.
