Re: ashton Esg

I have had the Churchill and the Robusto. Cant remember the details other then I loved them both. The price is a bit steep. I did a search and found a quick review...

Anytime you smoke it should be a special occassion, so let it sit a bit and fire that puppy up. Enjoy

Re: ashton Esg

The label is really cool, but if you ask me there over priced and over hyped. IMO the VSG is better.

Nice smoke but not worth the cash.

Good cigar, nice for a special occasion, but not anything I'd want a box of, too much money!

Re: ashton Esg

True, this stick is on the pricey side and the VSG maybe better but this is still a tasty smoke that need to be tried at least once.

I agree. Nice cigar. But dollar for dollar I'd go with the VSG.

Re: ashton Esg

I was gifted one of these by my wife for Father's Day and I intend to smoke it on the day my twins are born. I'm sure it is gonna taste better than any cigar I've ever had.

Re: ashton Esg

Here is a link with some info on the ESG.

http://www.ashtoncigar.com/Ashton-ESG.jsp

Tried a few of these and they are OK, but they are hard to find and cost 300 to 500 dollars a box.

I haven't had the opportunity to try them but a friend of mine said the VSG was even better and the relative value was prevalent over the ESG as the stick was half it's price. Cool band though, if you're smoking the band
