Description
Ashton VSG Corona Gordo Virgin Sun Grown cigars are made with flawless, extra-aged Ecuadorian wrappers and a longer-aged blend of 6 Cuban-seed Dominican fillers, plus an extra-rich Ligero leaf for a fuller, more complex flavor. The box-pressed sizes make for a longer lasting smoke, too. These cigars are sure to please!
The prized Sumatra-seed wrapper on Ashton VSG hails from a private estate in Ecuador where the region’s delicate cloud cover naturally filters sunlight. From there, it is fermented extensively in the hands of the Fuente family until it achieves its dark and lustrous sheen. The wrapper conceals a profound marriage of four-to-five-year-aged Dominican binder and filler tobaccos. Since its debut in 1999, the 94-rated Ashton VSG has governed the summit for full-bodied flavor and richness. Mesmerizing notes of cedar, earth, espresso beans, and leather develop with impeccable accord in several classic shapes.
