Product Introduction
The Ashton Estate Sun Grown (ESG) 21 - Year Salute is a robusto from the Dominican Republic. It has a wrapper, filler, and binder all from the Dominican Republic and is hand - made.
Appearance
It has a rating of 5/5. Wrapped with a golden - brown leaf that's meticulously rolled, and an ornate band adds to its luster.
Construction
With a 5/5 rating, the draw and burn were flawless, and it had a long - lasting, firm ash.
Flavor
It got a 4/5 rating. After lighting, it had sweet and mellow tastes. The first half had earth and leather notes. At the halfway mark, flavors like chocolate, cinnamon, nuts, and cedar emerged. However, it was on the mild side and lacked “punch” and rich flavors.
Value
It has a 2/5 rating. Priced at more than double its worth, there are many cheaper cigars that can rival it, like Ashton's VSG line.
Overall, this cigar is too expensive. It offers a nice experience but isn't worth the high price. It's advertised as a top - of - the - line smoke, but there are better options at half the price.
