The Ashton Classic cigar has become something of a gold standard to which many other cigars aspire. This high-quality smoke combines the fine aged Dominican filler aficionados have come to expect in an Ashton with a flavorful Connecticut wrapper, resulting in a mild cigar of exquisite quality.
The Ashton Classic’s almost ephemeral delicacy of taste is best enjoyed by itself, not as part of a rotation. You’ll want to sit back and savor the interplay of spice and citrus. Perhaps you’ll be rewarded with a hint of cream as a bottom note. The very complexity of this cigar demands a clean palate and full attention.
The renowned quality of Ashton Cigars delivers a good draw and an even burn, essential criteria for a fine cigar. At the end of a long, hard day, you shouldn’t have to struggle with your favorite smoke. Life is frustrating enough. Strike the match, toast the end, puff to establish the draw, and enjoy. That’s pretty simple and low-maintenance.
While an Ashton Classic is best enjoyed in its solitary splendor, light rum might be a suitable companion to accentuate the cigar’s light, mild flavor with its lemony highlights. A low-keyed fellow enthusiast completes this tranquil scene if you’re in the mood for company.
A $10 price tag is very reasonable for this quality cigar. You could expect to pay much more for others of this standard. Affordable luxury is a valuable commodity at anytime. Available in 44, 50, and 52 ring sizes and lengths from 5.0 to 7.5 inches, the Ashton Classic is a fitting accompaniment to an all-too-brief interlude or it can stand on its own as an adjunct to a longer evening of tranquility and reflection. Its very complexity and mildness are conducive to relaxation, not unwelcome stimulation. |
