The Ashton w/ the Opus X wrapper. Interesting.
-Nice construction w/ a veinless maduro wrapper and a great smell
-Good clip and easy ignition...if not too easy
-Really light draw w/ lots of smoke
-Consistent medium-bodied flavor throughout
-Needed a touch-up at 3/4 stick, but nothing serious. This was probably due to my not letting the stick stabilize for long enough after receiving it.
-Tasted like a mild Opus X
The VSG ER was a very solid smoke. I devoted 45 minutes to it and could have gone a little longer if I nubbed hard...but my fingers were feeling a bit raw after a day of climbing, and I didn't want to punish them any further.
90. Check it out if you get a chance.
