I'm going to go with quality of the cigar, since I've smoked many others now out of my humi, and they've all produced much better burns/ash. The two Arganese's I've smoked have both been messy marvin's.
I don't believe Arganese is known for their construction. This can also happen with mixed or short filler cigars, but since arganese is not either of those it's safe to say the construction is less than spectacular.

I have smoked plenty of Arganese and I can tell you that I have had little problem with them holding their ash! Most will hold an ash more than halfway through a cigar.

I haven't smoked one with mixed fillers either. All have been long filler.

I'm curious about the vitola. The PCs don't hold ash as well as the big guys. If it was a bigger cigar... I would go with storage as the issue.

Construction isn't the issue with Arganese... I'll leave it there!


As far as ash goes... Long ash proves nothing about quality.

I bought a 40 pack of unbanded Arganese for $20 on the Devil Site about 6 months ago. I was looking for some yard gars and ended up with a really decent smoke after some down time. Construction is awesome considering the price...stays lit, steady burn, solid ash. Best 50 cent cigar I've smoked!

A flaky ash is sometimes indicative of a short filler cigar, but as Darrell said most Arganese are long filler.

Construction is usually not an issue with Arganese...Its the foul taste they leave in your mouth!
