Sorry to be so strong but its like saying the 5 Vegas gold and the rocky patel vintage 99 are the same smoke. Outside of looking kinds similar they are nothing alike.

Re: Ashton vsg & san cristobal
They are similiar- although the San Cristobal is much stronger (not harsher). I doubt the blends are the same. Just to mention, I prefer the San Cristobal- wish' I had a Maestro right now!

Re: Ashton vsg & san cristobal
I smoked a VSG Spellbound a few days ago and I'm smoking a San Cristobal Supremo right now and I can assure you that they are two different blends. Just my .

Re: Ashton vsg & san cristobal
They are absolutely not the same!!!

It is just way to tell you if you can't find VSG, just smoke the substitute.

Re: Ashton vsg & san cristobal
I think you have your answer! The VSG is one of my favs. The ESG is even better!

Re: Ashton vsg & san cristobal
Actually, my understanding is that Benchmade (another Pepin smoke) would the closest blend to the San Cristobal. Having tried both, I can attest to that.

Re: Ashton vsg & san cristobal
I'll take that bet. They absolutely are not the same blends. Nothing tastes like the vsg profile. Nothing.

That is not a good comparison since they are both Ashton products...

I think it is because they are made by two separate and distinct cigar makers.
