Ashton Aged Maduro
$212.46 – $270.26There’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!
Don’t let the dark, oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper scare you off! This 92 rated beauty is still true to Ashton’s classic mild taste. This maduro edition yields a more complex flavor that’s uniquely smooth to the finis

La Gloria Cubana Serie R Esteli Natural
$91.99 – $108.99I’m a huge fan of this brand. I have not been a fan of their increasing prices. When this edition was launched in 2015, not only did I feel it was the best one I ever smoked, I was delighted at the affordable everyday price. Getting a 91 rating and being named one of the top 25 cigars of the year was a statement that I wasn’t alone. I feel this stick ranks as one of the greatest Cuban style, medium to full bodied cigars available on our whole site. If I could give it a sixth star, I would ! Enough said. Buckle up!
