Ashton Symmetry Belicoso

A cigar that will take you back to the aromas of your childhood breakfast. A deep yet gentle blend. Notes of vanilla, leather, nougat and toast lull you to a harmonious finish.

Produced by the famous Tabacalera Arturo Fuente y Cia in the Dominican Republic, this cigar is at the pinnacle of quality. Its impeccable construction and perfectly harmonious blend make it a cigar not to be missed.

Tasting note

Notes

Used to producing rather mild cigars, Ashton has this time teamed up with A. Fuente to produce a blend with more pizzazz than usual.

By incorporating Nicaraguan tobaccos into the heart of the composition, Ashton offers us a deeper taste experience.

The first notes are rather flattering. Raw, a hint of vanilla mingles with the leather to give a lovely roundness that continues throughout the tasting.

Once lit, the sweetness continues with notes of almond and a hint of sugar, reminiscent of the nougat of our childhood. A little regressive... but so very pleasant.

Fragrances of toasted bread take over in the second third (not enough to leave the brunch table of our sensory palate).

The finish is balanced and harmonious. Symmetrical, some might say...

Pairing

Sunday morning, step out onto the terrace with a cup of coffee in hand. Immerse yourself in your memories and rediscover the comforting harmony of those happy moments shared at the table.

Coffee (or tea, if you're that kind of person), will accompany your cigar for a tasty experience.

The cigar anecdote

Produced in the same factory as the renowned Opus X, these cigars benefit from the expertise of several generations of workers.



Ashton

Robert Levin, who grew up and worked in his father's Philadelphia cigar shop in the 50s and 60s, took over the family business in the 70s. After successfully expanding beyond the city walls, he decided it was time to produce his own cigars.

Ashton was born in 1985. After a brief meeting with the Fuente family, the decision was made. Carlos, Carlito and Robert would work together to create the brand's first cigars.

Today, Robert's son Sathya has joined the venture and shares his father's ambition to produce the finest cigars in the world.
