One of the best cigars on the planet, you shouldn’t consider yourself a true aficionado until you’ve experienced an Ashton Heritage Puro Sol Double Corona for yourself. No matter how much we are going to gush about it right here and now, there’s just no substitute for the pleasure to be derived from puffing on one of these ultra-premium jewels. Blended and rolled by the masters at Arturo Fuente, each quality 7” X 52 handmade is comprised entirely of Sungrown tobaccos, as noted by the cigar’s name. The longleaf filler and binder hail from the Dominican Republic while the wrapper is a sultry and rich Habano from Ecuador.
The crown-bedecked red, black, and gold band which adorns each of these immaculate stogies gives the anticipating enthusiast an early indication of the amazing wealth of flavor soon to be presented to the palate. Exquisite construction and a rock-steady draw are par for the course for any Fuente crafted cigar, and the heavy and solid Ashton Heritage Puro Sol Double Corona lives up to the expectation. Burning straight and true from the start, silky clouds of smoke pour from the barrel flush with cedar, whole wheat toast, nutmeg, and caramel. Subtle black pepper appears during the second third, bolstered by bittersweet cocoa and a savory nuttiness that keeps this medium-strength masterpiece balanced and cool through the finish.
Approachable enough to be appreciated by most novices yet with a complexity favored by many a grizzled veteran, the Ashton Heritage Puro Sol Double Corona needs to be sitting in your humidor right now. If you currently find yourself without any, we’ll ship them to you fast and in perfect condition so you could be enjoying one as early as this weekend. So don’t wait.
