Virtually all the shops carry them, and for many shops, they’re the most expensive cigar they carry, so they’re given the impression of being super fantastic can’t be beat cigars. Still, the Ashton VSG’s are sort of like everyone’s introduction to really good cigars. It’s a good cigar, I have one in my humidor right now, even (found it just now when I was moving others around), but great? C’mon! Set the standards higher! I tend to favor Nicaraguan cigars in general, but there are a few of the Fuente OpusX’s that I like quite a bit. I don’t understand a lot of these comments. I was very impressed by the crisp and clean flavors of the smoke and definitely recommend them to anyone who enjoys a good sun grown wrapper. With a price point of about $8.00 and up, these sticks are out outside of my comfort zone (not to mention budget) but to me, are worth every penny. Overall I think that this was a fantastic smoke. In addition to the leather I was picking up a sort of Tangy like flavor, most likely due to the Sungrown Wrapper, that I found to be a really nice little change of pace. The woody base flavor was beginning to fade and Leather was becoming the dominant component. ![]() The body continued to build and made a smooth transition into the full range while the finish remained smooth and enjoyable. The base flavor was now more along the lines of Wood and Leather as the original Nutty flavor faded.Īs I reached the final third of my Ashton VSG I found myself totally engrossed by the smoke. The body slowly began to creep towards the full range while the finish remained smooth and easy on the palate. The draw was free and produced a large volume of thick and flavorful smoke. At this junction in the smoke, the most appealing thing was how clean and crisp the flavors tasted.Īs I continued to smoke I found myself into the second third of my cigar. The finish was smooth and easy on the palate while the base flavor was Nutty with a mild coffee flavor. The draw was free with little resistance and paved the way for a nice medium body to start. The aroma at the head and foot were both rich and very appealing as was the oily sheen which coated the wrapper leaf.Īfter a quick cut and light I had my VSG burning evenly and producing a good volume of flavorful smoke. When pinched I found the body to be slightly soft but otherwise consistent down the length of the stick. Being one of the first cigars I laid eyes on as I rummaged through my cooler, I decided it was about time I stopped looking at it and started smoking it.ĭuring a quick pre light inspection I found the wrapper to be a consistent medium brown color with a few medium sized veins running throughout. This particular stick was requested for review a couple of weeks back. Up for review this week is the Ashton VSG. ![]()
