Ashton ESG is formally know as the Estate Sun Grown. What’s more important is this amazing blend consists of the irreplaceable reserves of the Fuente family’s oldest tobaccos. This all-Dominican recipe of ultra-mature tobaccos is finished in a rare Dominican wrapper leaf. Think, notes of cedar, graham cracker, molasses, and black pepper accompanying signature Dominican spices. To sum up, the ESG is a medium to full bodied Masterpiece.
