Ashton VSG. Had my first about 2 weeks ago, bought a box. Loved them to death.

You can add me to AF sungrown and Ashton VSG. Mighty tasty

Jdbwolverines · 11-21-2008, 06:25 PM

VSG's if I have the $, RP's if I don't

11-21-2008, 06:42 PM

I have always loved the 858 sg when available. Just better than the regulars in my opinion.

11-21-2008, 07:33 PM

RP, VSG, Don Thomas, as many have mentioned these. . . I too like these - can't go wrong with en as far as I'm concerned.

Silound · 11-22-2008, 12:52 AM

King B's, Diamond Crown Maximus in any size, 858 SG (I still have some from the original '98 offering), and Taboo are my favs.

I find RP sungowns to be sketchy...a good box out of 3 maybe. Last box I had were so terribly constructed I stopped buying them altogether. I have a few singles from previous boxes that are great.

Someone mentioned Oliva Serie V.....that's an unusual wrapper they created for that cigar, but it's one-of-a-kind good. Until you said something, I almost forgot that was a SG.

RP sun grown and the one VSG I had was awesome.

FYI to all here. Scott has become a sun grown ho.

jledou · 11-22-2008, 06:55 AM

I have been enjoying the RP-X-outs Sungrown. Construction and smoking on these are not an issue IMO.

The Double Château Fuente has been my go to stick for a long time.

bresdogsr · 11-22-2008, 04:40 PM

Like the AF SG Chateau and RP SG

dannysguitar · 11-22-2008, 04:42 PM

Without question it's the VSG

11-23-2008, 06:36 AM

RP's OSG. don't like the new blend as much

cort · 11-23-2008, 08:37 AM

1. Ashton ESG
2. Ashton VSG
3. Taboo HSG
3. Oliva V
3. RP
3. A bunch more

Nimbus · 11-23-2008, 12:30 PM

Arturo Fuente 858 SG comes to mind whenever I hear the words Sun Grown.

11-23-2008, 07:57 PM

I have liked every Ashton I have smoked. Their VSG goes right up there to the top. I didn't know the Oliva S-V was a sungrown. That one goes to the top too. The RPs are real good. I have been unimpressed by the AF sungrowns. The Taboo HSG seemed too weak for my taste. There are probably a lot more that could be called "sungrown" that I like. I fell like digging through my stash and picking one out now.

11-24-2008, 10:05 PM

I went down the slope with my first SG Fuente and from there skidded on over to Ashton and then to Rocky Patel,,,all good!

alfbacca · 11-24-2008, 10:39 PM

I love the Cabaiguan Guapos, but after hearing all the raving over the VSG, I'm going to have to find me some.

11-24-2008, 10:57 PM

As far as straight out full body strength...I would absolutely go to the Cabiguan Guapos....but, if I want an amazing flavor profile from the sun grown wrapper leafs...and one that has yet to be mentioned...its all about the Davidoff Millenium Blends...ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM!
