Ashton VSG Review. Thanks Bill (GlockG23)

The other day, I had a BBQ at my girlfriend's parents house. I had all the good stuff! Especially an Ashton VSG that Bill had sent me. Thanks again Bill, your one great BOTL!

Onto the cigar! Just smelling this cigar made my mouth water. It had prelight draws filled with earthy flavors and some others I could not place. Once lighting there was a hint of spice, BIG on earthy flavors and some leather as well. It did have some burn issues, but that was mainly my fault. I did not light the cigar to well. I was a little intoxicated at that point....oops.

Anyway, I really enjoyed this cigar. From start to finish, there was a slight sweetness, and rich earthy and leather flavors that I really enjoyed throughout. I highly suggest trying one if your able to get your hands on some. I'd definately smoke this again if given the chance.

Sorry only two pics of this great cigar. Damn batteries always seem to run out!

Very nice! Always at the top of my cigar list. I love the Enchantment size, complex with a nice little punch, always puts a smile on my face.

Re: Ashton VSG Review. Thanks Bill (GlockG23)

Smoked my first VSG yesterday fromt he MOAB that Bill sent me. I think it's the best cigar that I have ever smoked yet! I got a few more and I can't wait to fire them up.

Thanks for the review! These are some awesome smokes!

Re: Ashton VSG Review. Thanks Bill (GlockG23)

Great review.

Man this is one smoke that I have to try. Keep hearing so many good things about it but I almost never seem to be able to get one.

Re: Ashton VSG Review. Thanks Bill (GlockG23)

old post, I know, but this is a great example of a post that just makes me want to fire up a cigar - in this case the VSG - good thing I've got 4 VSG's in my humidor
