Ashton ESG 21 Year Salute
Ashton ESG 21 Year Salute
Created to mark Ashton’s two decades of growth, the Ashton ESG 21 Year Salute is a distinctive Robusto-format cigar from the Estate Sun Grown line, blended by Carlos Fuente Jr. and handcrafted in the Dominican Republic. Its defining feature is a rare Dominican sun grown wrapper cultivated at Chateau de la Fuente, a leaf developed specifically for this series and not used on other Ashton cigars.
That singular wrapper gives the cigar a richer, more concentrated character than many traditional Dominican offerings, with notes often centered on cedar, earth, spice, coffee, and a touch of natural sweetness. The 5 1/4 x 52 format offers a balanced presentation of the blend and generally allows for about 50 to 75 minutes of smoking time, depending on pace. For smokers interested in one of Ashton’s most significant celebratory releases, the 21 Year Salute remains a benchmark expression of the ESG line.
