Review Notes:This was and atypical cigar for me, I prefer the darker more robust cigars, but it was an anniversary gift from my wife. Excellent construction, excellent draw, perfect burn, everything you would expect from an Ashton. The only negative for me was the lack of punch in the flavor, the flavor was very “one dimensional” but this was okay as the cigar was designed to be this way it was not a half hearted effort that left inferior tobacco tasting bland. It was perfectly aged as the flavor was consistent throughout. This is the once per year smoke because of price and not conforming to my tastes for cigars, but an excellent smoke none-the-less.

Review Notes:pretty mild, approaching candela (almost) not as nutty as I expected with that kind of wrapper --- great burn, well built cigar, just not enough flavor for the price. I've had a lot better for a lot less.

Review Notes:While Ashton's always seem to be a little on the mild side, this one definitely has a little bit more bite. Still a very smooth cigar like the Ashtons, but with a little more spice. It burns even but far too fast for such a small cigar. The pull is great though as you can really get a lot of smoke out of it with much ease. If I need a guaranteed short and fairly easy afternoon smoke, this is where I go.

Review Notes:First off, this cigar looks great. I love the size of this cigar too. Mild and smooth would be the words to describe this cigar. It draws very well. As with most Ashtons, this stick was fairly expensive, but well worth the money if you enjoy smooth and mild.

Review Notes:Good appearance and solid construction, but not quite enough for the price ($9.99). Very even draw, but not the slowest burner. Starts off extra mild and rapidly settles at very mild. This is one of the smoothest cigars I've smoked, and definitely the mildest. Forget cognac with it if you still want to taste the cigar. An extra smooth cigar that's somewhat overpriced.
