I’ve never been much on the smaller cigars, but the Ashton Esquire Maduro really impressed me. Very nice overall flavor, and very good construction. Apparently the Maduros are well aged, about 5 years, before put on the market. It really shows in the flavor.
Appearance : [rating:4/5]
A fan of smaller cigars would likely give this a five as it does look really good. Nice color and all that too. The size just throws me off a bit.
Construction : [rating:4.5/5]
Excelent construction on this one. Despite the size, I got a good cloud of smoke from beginning all the way to the end. A very nice even burn also.
Flavor : [rating:4.5/5]
This smoke began with a nice balance of rich flavors, with a hint of woodiness. It was, I suppose you could say, a very nice calming sensation. The second third maintained the flavor and seemed to add a bit more of a molasses tinge to itself. The final third was all sweetness with just a hint of spice. I would love to have these in a Robusto format!
Value : [rating:4/5]
I would likely rate this as a 5 in a different format. I’m a big cigar man and I like a nice long smoke. Though the flavor is impeccable, as is the construction, these just didn’t last long enough for me, particularly for the price.
Overall Rating : [rating:overall/5]
All size issues aside, this is a really good cigar. I would suggest it as an anytime of the day smoke, but particularly good if you don’t have a lot of time to kill.

I felt these were quite strong for a small cigar but very well presented and a good 15 mins of down time to be had.

While being a little on the tight side, these little guys aren’t bad, and have a more present flavor from the get-go than some of the larger sticks. I like these, and Fuente’s Exquisito maduro as quick winter smokes.
