Ashton Cabinet Selection

Cabinet Selection is about time and tamping down rough edges: longer fermentation and multi‑year cellar aging deepen the classic Connecticut‑shade profile into something more nutty and velvety. Smoke texture is soft and creamy, with almond and cashew up front, a creamy coffee‑bean midpalate and a light dusting of white pepper or baking spice for balance. Packs and burns tend to be even, and the line’s wide range of vitolas — from Trés Petite to long Churchills and shaped heads — lets the same restrained DNA play out with different pacing. If you like the Connecticut style but want a rounder, slightly more developed expression, Cabinet Selection delivers.
