Ashton ESG 22 Year Salute
Ashton ESG 22 Year Salute
Created to mark a milestone in Ashton’s long partnership with Carlos Fuente Jr., the Ashton ESG 22 Year Salute is one of the line’s most recognizable expressions. This torpedo is handcrafted in the Dominican Republic and distinguished by a rare Dominican sun grown wrapper cultivated at Chateau de la Fuente, a leaf developed exclusively for the Estate Sun Grown series rather than shared across the broader Ashton portfolio.
Inside, aged Dominican tobaccos deliver a fuller, more refined profile than Ashton’s classic core lines, with a character often noted for cedar, earth, leather, nuts, and a measured touch of spice. The 22 Year Salute’s 6 x 52 torpedo format adds a bit of focus to that profile while keeping the blend poised and deliberate. Smoked at an easy pace, it generally offers about 75 to 95 minutes of smoking time.
The cigar also carries meaningful line-specific recognition, with this exact size earning prominent praise from Cigar Aficionado during a vertical tasting of the ESG range. For smokers interested in Fuente-made Dominican cigars with a rarer wrapper expression and a more developed, savory profile, this vitola shows why the ESG series remains such a sought-after part of the Ashton portfolio.
