Do you know what three pipe companies have
evolved into
top Premium Cigar providers?
Most cigar smokers don't know that Ashton,
Savinelli
and CAO were originally
smoking pipe companies offering their own brand of quality smoking
pipes and smoker's accessories.
Many are not even aware that most Ashton cigars are
made
by the Arturo Fuente company in the Dominican republic.
Likewise, many do not know that the Savinelli
Extremely Limited Reserve
(ELR) cigar line has been produced by Arturo Fuente since 1994 and earned a
91 rating from Cigar Aficionado. For the past 16 years this cigar has continued
to deliver consistent flavor and construction...then again, what else would
you expect from a Fuente made cigar.
A couple of years after the introduction of the
Savinelli ELR, CAO primarily
a Meerschaum pipe company, introduced their first cigar line and as the saying
goes, 'the rest is history'.
Today they have more premium cigar lines than either Ashton or Savinelli.
So, the next time you buy an
Ashton, CAO
or, Savinelli
cigar
remember that each company has its roots in the smoking pipe
industry and have carried that spirit of producing quality pipes
into producing quality premium cigars.
Just thought you'd like to know!
