Ashton to Add Two New Sizes to La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut

April 3, 2025 By Matthew Tabacco

Ashton will introduce two new sizes of La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut with a 5 1/2 x 52 Belicoso and 7 1/2 x 54 Double Corona at PCA 2025 in New Orleans.

Now available in nine sizes, La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut conveys a rich and creamy profile of almond, cashew, cedar, and coffee bean with hints of buttercream throughout a silky finish. Quintessential hallmarks of Cuban cigar-making distinguish La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut. Every leaf of tobacco undergoes an extensive triple fermentation, while each cigar is meticulously rolled according to the entubado method and finished with a traditional Cuban-style triple cap.

Current available sizes include:

  • Belicoso – 5.5 x 52
  • Churchill – 7 x 50
  • Corona – 5.5 x 44
  • Double Corona – 7.5 x 54
  • El Jefe – 7 x 58
  • Immensa – 5.75 x 60
  • Monarch – 6 x 52
  • Robusto – 5.25 x 54
  • Rothschild – 5 x 50

La Aroma de Cuba was first released in 2023 and made our list that year. La Aroma de Cuba Connecticut, as well as all of the other La Aroma de Cuba blends, is blended by José “Pepin” Garcia and Jaime Garcia at My Father Cigars S.A. The blend features Connecticut-seed wrapper, grown in Ecuador, harbors vintage Nicaraguan long-fillers cultivated on select Garcia estates in Estelí, Jalapa, and Namanji.
