About the VSG (Virgin Sun Grown) line
The VSG (Virgin Sun Grown) is Ashton's full-bodied statement, released in 1999. It is built around a rare Ecuadorian sun-grown wrapper over aged Dominican tobaccos, delivering rich, powerful notes of spice, leather, wood and dark sweetness. A departure from the brand's milder Connecticut lines, the VSG showed Ashton could make a serious full-bodied cigar and has since become one of its most acclaimed and sought-after releases.
