Ashton Virgin Sun Grown is best known by its nickname, Ashton VSG. The cigars are the product of the collaborative efforts of three of the cigar industry's biggest players: the Levin family (Ashton), the Fuente family, and the Oliva family.
VSG takes its name from its dark and oily wrapper, which is a high-priming Sumatra-seed leaf that is sun-grown in Ecuador by the Oliva family. This leaf is then processed by the renowned Fuente family at their Tabacalera A. Fuente facility in the Dominican Republic and paired with the Fuente's own Dominican-grown leaves throughout the binder and filler (including four-to-five-year-aged leaves).
The end result is a surprisingly rich, strong, and full-flavored smoking experience—one that helped usher in the modern trend of ultra-full-bodied profiles when the VSG first debuted in 1999. The cigars have racked up multiple accolades since their release, noted for delivering rich, full-bodied flavors of charred oak, baker's cocoa, espresso powder, molasses, leather, and burnt caramel.

Ben Rowland - Ashton VSG Enchantment
Great little perfecto, strong flavors, with a great draw and construction. This whole line has been good for quite a while, and its one of those brands that I know I will like every time I pick one up. Its a perfect cigar for the experienced smoker, or for those looking to try out something a little heavier.

Nathan pawlikowski - Ashton VSG Robusto - 5 Pack
This cigar is not for the beginners. You can tell from the rich oily wrapper that this cigar is going to slap. That may be an understatement. It is super rich and dank. The burn is extremely slow while the draw is usually perfect. This cigar pairs with a coffee but be prepared for your coffee not to taste as bold as it was before you started smoking this cigar. The cigar starts out strong and by the tike you have a nub it's hitting like mike tyson!

Ben Rowland - Ashton VSG Robusto
This is a great cigar, with consistent performance year over year. Every time I go to a Ashton VSG, I know what I am going to get, medium to full, thick smoke, solid draw and construction, with great flavor. Its really all you can ask for in a cigar, a brand that is always there, just like you remember.

Timothy Beinecke - Ashton VSG Illusion - 5 Pack
The VSG in this vitola ages so nicely! If you can get a box and let them sit and just visit them every 6-8 months you'll be rewarded for your patience. Caramel, cedar, leather, and nutmeg are prominent in this cigar. If you can get them to the 3-5 year mark you wont be disappointed with the way they age!
