Ashton Cigars VSG (Virgin Sun Grown)

Ashton VSG

Holt's Staff Reviews · Apr 27, 2018

Today I’m smoking an Ashton VSG in a substantial 7.5-by-54 Double Corona called the Spellbound. This bold and decadent smoke hails from a serious pedigree, and it’s blended by legendary cigarmaker Carlito Fuente. When you’re in the mood for a smooth, full-bodied cigar that easily lasts over an hour, allow me to elaborate on why the Ashton VSG Spellbound should be at the top of your list.

I was not sure what to expect from this cigar before smoking it. However, after smoking it, the VSG ER seems to combine the best of both worlds: the sweetness of an aged VSG and the spiciness, complexity and strength of the OpusX, which is not surprising, since it is essentially a combination of the two brands. Incredibly complex flavors, great draw, an ok burn and the perfect amount of spice and pepper to enhance the flavors. Is this the best Fuente cigar I have smoked? Yes, it was and that includes the Casa Fuente Lancero and the Don Carlos Lancero , both of which I love with abandon. They are expensive as hell, if you can even find them for sale, but in this case, the hype is warranted.

Since its debut in 1999, the Ashton VSG has seen the market go from mild to bold, Connecticut shade to maduro, and back again. It has seen the ebb and flow of consumer interest, and it has always found its place in the hearts of consumers. This brand is a testament to quality, longevity, and staying true to your identity.

This well-balanced and perfectly constructed cigars isn't exactly cheap but the experience makes up for it.
