Description
Ashton Heritage Puro Sol is another one of the most exclusive entries this iconic company produces. Founded by Robert Levin in 1985, Ashton is among the most revered premium cigar brands in the world. To begin with, all Ashton cigars are handmade in the Tabacalera A. Fuente factory in the Dominican Republic from only the finest tobaccos. Ashton continues to be a “Top 3” brand in the U.S. for more than thirty years and is sold in over 60 countries.
With attention to detail, Ashton Heritage Puro Sol is made from Cuban-seed tobaccos planted in Ecuador grown under direct sun light.This beautifully made medium to full bodied cigar yields rich notes of leather, cedar, cocoa, and caramel.
Cigar Aficionado describes this amazing smoke as follows, “This incarnation of the venerable Ashton brand gets its name from the sun-grown tobaccos within. It delivers a complex weaving of hickory, walnut and leather notes with a touch of smoky, earthy flavors reminiscent of your last dram of Islay Scotch.”
To sum up, without doubt, this spectacular cigar is a winner!
If you consider yourself a connoisseur and haven’t tried one of these Ashtons, what are you waiting for? The Heritage Puro Sol is available in five popular sizes in 25 count boxes. Any one you choose is a top pick!

There’s a few reasons why 90 rated Ashtons have remained in the top ten for decades. They are made by the folks at Arturo Fuente. They are insanely consistent and remain one of the benchmarks for mild to mellow taste. If you’ve smoked them you know. If you haven’t, I envy you!
Those of us that have enjoyed Ashton’s Classic series over the years have become accustomed to their taste. When the Puro Sol edition was launched it was Ashton’s first venture into the medium bodied category. Bang! Not only did it get a 94 rating, it placed #7 of the top 25 best cigars of the year. So if you’ve enjoyed Ashton Classics, you must step up and try this more flavorful beauty.

I could resist posting this high profile review to reinforce how great this cigar is,
“ Ashton Heritage Puro Sol Churchill (94 Points)
One of the highest-scoring cigars of the year so far, the Ashton Heritage Puro Sol Churchill (6 3/4 inches by 48 ring gauge, $11.60) has a medium to full body thanks to its blend of Ecuadoran wrapper atop all Dominican tobacco. A complex tapestry of hickory, walnut and leather notes meld beautifully with a smoky backdrop reminiscent of an Islay Scotch. Subtle spiciness brings it all together in sublime fashion
