About this cigar
The Ashton Aged Maduro #56 represents the house style that built Ashton's reputation for restraint and refinement. This Dominican puro draws its character from long-aged tobaccos and a naturally dark, oily Maduro wrapper that adds depth without heaviness. What distinguishes it from the category is the construction: perfectly rolled, with a burn so clean it becomes invisible. You're left with the cigar itself. Expect a medium-bodied experience that unfolds gradually. The first third offers cocoa and subtle leather. By the midpoint, cedar and a whisper of spice emerge, balanced against creamy undertones that remind you why Connecticut tobacco gets all the press but Maduro deserves the respect. The finish lingers with chocolate and aged wood. This is a cigar that rewards attention during the final quarter inch. The #56 works as a post-dinner option when something fuller than a Connecticut feels right, or as an evening smoke when you need confidence and contemplation without aggression. For your lounge or retail floor, it's the Maduro that converts skeptics. Smokers who think dark wrappers mean harsh will reconsider after the first third. A box of 25 moves reliably.
