Ashton is one of the world's premier luxury cigar brands. Handcrafted in the Dominican Republic, Ashton cigars are made to the highest quality standards using only the finest aged tobaccos. With an infinite commitment to quality, consistency and excellence, Ashton is celebrated worldwide for the very finest in premium cigars.
Founded in 1985 by Robert Levin, Ashton Distributors, Inc. is family owned and operated with headquarters in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Ashton tradition is rooted in the company's unparalleled commitment to quality and consumer satisfaction. Handmade in the Dominican Republic in the legendary Tabacalera A. Fuente factory, Ashton cigars utilize only the finest, most exceptional, aged tobaccos. Every detail, from meticulous wrapper selection to the complex processes of aging and blending, receives the utmost accommodation in the manufacture of each cigar. Ashton has received numerous awards and accolades through the years and is a perennial "Top 3" brand in the U.S. market, as well as an international favorite with distribution in over 60 countries around the world.
Following decades of success with the Fuente family, Ashton expanded its portfolio in the early 2000s by partnering with rising cigar-maker, Jose “Pepin” Garcia, to develop two new brands in Nicaragua. Renowned today as two of the fastest-growing cigar brands in the world, La Aroma de Cuba and San Cristobal continue to garner unrivaled critical acclaim and commendation. Partnership with the Garcia family exemplifies Ashton's immense devotion to quality by collaborating with only the world's most prolific cigar manufacturers.
In addition to Ashton, La Aroma de Cuba and San Cristobal cigars, Ashton Distributors, Inc. is the proprietor of Savoy Humidors & Accessories.
In 2004 Robert's son, Sathya, joined the company on a full-time basis. Since his arrival, Sathya’s main focus has been on brand development, building product portfolios, strengthening distribution networks, and expanding company infrastructure. Sathya was promoted to President & CEO in 2021.
Today, the Levin father-and-son team endeavors with passion to continue cultivating Ashton's reputation for creating the finest, most exquisite collection of premium cigars in the world.
“Our pledge to you is that every one of our cigars is made with respect to only one standard of quality: The Finest."
Sincerely,
