Meet the Ashton Classic Majesty - a 6x56 Toro-sized Dominican puro wrapped in golden Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade leaf. Priced at $343.13/box of 25, this mild-bodied stick from Fuente's legendary factory shows why Connecticut fans keep coming back. The thinner 56 ring gauge allows wrapper flavors to shine through without overheating, perfect for those 90-minute contemplative sessions.
The initial puffs deliver creamy almond paste and honey-glazed walnuts. Thin blue smoke carries subtle white pepper tingle on retrohale. Burn line stays razor-sharp despite the 56 ring gauge.
Dominican Piloto Cubano filler emerges with cedar shavings and wheat cracker flavors. Watch for occasional tar buildup near the cap - quick purges restore the clean mineral finish.
Unexpected complexity appears: cardamom pods dancing with salted caramel. Nub territory brings faint earthiness without bitterness, though nicotine-sensitive smokers might bail at the 1.5" mark.
Store at 65% RH max - higher humidity mutes the delicate spices. Pair with mineral water or light oolong tea to accentuate the nutty flavors. First-timers should drybox for 12 hours to prevent mid-burn touchups.
