Product Introduction
The Ashton Heritage Puro Sol Robusto is from the Dominican Republic. Its name, Puro Sol, means Pure Sun, indicating how the wrapper was grown, which shows in its dark - brown hue. It comes in a Robusto format with a size of 140 x 20 mm, and is hand - made. Each cigar costs around $10.
Appearance
When opening the box, many bent cigars with indentions and pits in the wrappers were found, which was disappointing.
Construction
There was an early run in the cigar, but the rest of the burn was relatively even. The draw was smooth.
Flavor
- One third: The light - up had a good and stout flavor.
- Two thirds: It provided a lot of wood graininess but lacked spice.
- Three thirds: The hidden spiciness was revealed, but the overall flavor seemed lacking.
Value
The cigars are priced a bit higher than their actual worth. They would be more suitable in the $4 - 5 price range.
Overall, it's not the worst or the best. It's a good choice for new cigar smokers. If on sale, it's worth getting.
