Ashton Virgin Sun Grown Eclipse (6" x 52) delivers one of the richest and most luxuriously textured experiences in the Virgin Sun Grown line. Bold, savory, and impeccably composed, this cigar stands apart for its depth of flavor and refined execution, offering a full-bodied journey that remains smooth and engaging throughout. Handcrafted for Ashton Cigars by Arturo Fuente, the Eclipse features Dominican binder and filler tobaccos aged four to five years. These well-matured leaves are wrapped in a striking sun grown Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper that adds richness and natural sweetness. Unlike other offerings in the line, the Eclipse is presented in a tube and finished in a traditional round shape, giving it a distinctive presence and a slightly different flavor delivery. The smoking experience opens with bold notes of wood, leather, and pepper, quickly joined by earth and warm spice. As the cigar develops, layers of caramel, chocolate, and espresso emerge, followed by touches of dried fruit, nuts, and cream. The profile remains full bodied yet polished, unfolding with impressive complexity and a lingering, satisfying finish over the course of about an hour. Highly rated and widely praised, the Ashton Virgin Sun Grown Eclipse is a standout for smokers seeking intensity paired with elegance. Its unique presentation and deeply layered flavor make it an excellent choice for special occasions or when only a truly memorable cigar will do.
