Good Summer Smoke

good summer smoke, not to strong, not to bland. A little on the light side for my preference, def over priced (a good value for say $7). I personally would take a RYJ Reserve real over this one, but then again its a personal preference. Not a must have in the humi, but will be nice on a hot summer day after a BBQ.

What a waste of money!

One of the worst tasting sticks on the planet. As with every other Ashton I have ever tried they just like to burn out and you spend more time relighting and touching them up than actually smoking them. I will stick with Punch and Rocky Patel from now on.

Very nice cigar

Great smoke. Burned a little uneven, but my light may be to blame. I still ended up smoking this one past the band. Go get one.

Full flavor without sharpness

Don't let the "mild" designation fool you. This is an outstanding smoke. Full of flavor, excellent draw, perfect construction, wonderful aroma. Worth every penny!

High price

There is nothing wrong with this cigar at all. It has all the qualities you would expect from the manufacturer. I just don't think the experiance justifies the price tag. While it's nice to have a few of these in your humidor to impress visitors, you can get just as good a smoke from much less expensive cigars.

Excelent Cigar, but $9 is a little steep.

I picked one of these up this morning and smoked it while driving. I usually smoke Maduros or naturals with a darker wrapper, but I was curious about these because I love Ashton Aged Maduros. The stick lasted about an hour and a half, but I smoke cigars furiously so it would probably last 2 hours for most. The burn, draw, and construction were perfect, like an Ashton should be. It had a nice flavor to it, I would describe it as a fuller bodied Montecristo. The flavor was good from start to finish. So all in all it was a great cigar, but not a unique one. You can find a similar quality cigar for a lower price, but hey, if you have the money to burn all the time, you can't beat the perfect burn and easy draw.

Rich creamy taste, perfect wrapper and draw

This is a favorite; enjoy the quality wrapper, perfect draw, rich clouds of smoke. This is a medium body, rich tasting cream, coffee smooth. I will keep a box in my humidor at all times.

good-not great

A nice cigar in most respects, but the taste is not too memorable.

Great expectations

Bought 6 Ashton Cabinet Belicoso in an Miami cigar shop just out of curiosity, after smoking two Cabinet #6(wonderful). The Belicoso turned out to be an average, yet well constructed cigar. I had to relight it 3 times, the burn was surprisingly uneven and there was no taste at all. But I only smoked one and 5 still to try !!

Smooth and Inviting

This one of my favorites. Smooth draw, grayish white ash, excellent construction and no bite. A mild to medium cigar. Savor this one for an hour or more. You won' regret it.

"Mucho Phenominal"

I tried the Ashton Belicoso for the first time about 2 weeks ago and may I say "Where have you been all my cigar smoking life"...Absolutely "Fantastic"...Price is a little steep but I "Truely" believe you get what you pay for and I don't mind paying for "Perfection"...

Outstanding

New to cigar smoking. Have tried several different brands and didn't care for any of them. But then I tried the Ashton. Outstanding. Liked them so much I smoked 2 in a row. But the price. OUCH!!

Only 4 Survived Vacation, make that 3.

Took a box of these babies with me on vacation. Like putting the cherry on the desert. The taste,draw,burn,construction,just everything (but the price) is great! Have tried most of the Cabinet line and consistancy is the word here. Pick a size, any size and enjoy. Time to reorder now only 3 left, better hurry.

Its Fuentes best , enough said!

I have a few other favorites, but when i want to treat myself I grab onto 1 of these, sit back with my favorite drink, kiss the world goodbye for an hour and take a mental cruise.My humidores are NEVER without this baby. PS wish they didn't cost so much.

Ultimately Fantastico!

Definitely the best smoke I've ever had in my life! Smooth Draw, great texture, great taste makes a truly great cigar. Enjoyed smoking 2 of these on my birthday, and smoked another Ashton Cabernet--which was also truly awesome. Plus, lasting a good hour and half. All I can say is, try one, and you'd be kicking yourself if you couldn't have another!

another beauty from Ashton's Cabinet

Can Fuente make a beautiful looking, feeling, tasting, smoking and remembering cigar??
This is one primo smoke, everything I love about cigars without one thing I don't like. It's even worth every penny of the ten bucks

This is one beautiful cigar

From the silkiness of the wrapper, to the smooth draw and full rich, yet tempered flavour, this is one beautiful cigar. I highly recommend it.
