Tried a Tres Mystique last night... good smoke, but a bit overpowering. May have been due to the size, as this is a fairly short cigar. I've got another I may let rest awhile before trying it again.

The Ashton VSG is a different line of cigars than the Ashton Cabinet series.
The VSG is a strong full bodied cigar with an Ecaudorian sun grown wrapper. The Ashton Cabinet is a Conneticut shade mild to medium cigar that has a real buttery characteristic to it.
Both are made by the Fuente family in the Dominican Republic. Both are on the high end price wise, but they are both well made top of the line smokes.

I didn't know that Ashton was a Fuente brand. I just smoked my first Opus X the other day and the closest comparison I could make to something I've smoked before was to the Ashton VSG. I'm looking forward to trying some of the other sizes.Originally Posted by The Master

The cabinet are great, IMHO. #3, is my favorite size! The #3 is similar to a Signature in the Hemingway line.
Also, the DC sized perfecto that the Cabient line makes, is very similar to a Masterpiece.

The Spellbound is great at a barbeque. It is a long lasting one.

I just picked up a VSG for about 8 bucks, I think its a double corona or a lonsdale (It's thin and 6')

Just bought some Ashton cabinets on the recommendation of the owner of Cigar King in Skokie, IL. He said they'd go well with Scotch; that got me. Plan to open either my Talisker 175th anniversary single malt or Pappy van Winkle 23 yr old bourbon ($200 bottle, very limited supply)

Hmmmm.... Cigar King in Skokie - that would mean you're in the Chicago area... Maybe you could meet up with our group of chuckleheads when we next herf...
Anecdotal
If this is the case, why does it say Ashton Cabinet VSG? Are there two different Cabinet lines? Just curious. If anyone could clear this up for me, I'd appreciate it
