I've only tried the Ashton in this group.
It's got to be up there, for sure.

Haven't tried any of these three. I don't get out much.

Haven't heard of any of these three. I don't get out at all.

The A. Flores is by Pinar Del Rio...I have been smoking the half corona's and they are good!

Before I found the crew on the forum I used the CA 10 best list as a gauge for solid cigars, funny thing was I could never find any available after they published their list. Duh, :-)

The Ashton ESG 22-Year Salute is an absolutely fantastic cigar. It's easily in my top 5 ever smoked.
[Reply]

Haven't tried any of them. Maybe will look for the Ashton based on James' (and not CA Top 25's) recommendation.

I checked JRs and CI, and they're only $450 a box. :-)

I've had a few VSGs, and love them. I've never had an ESG, and at those prices I never shall. :-)

For me it's definitely a special occasion smoke only.

If you want to get a couple to try at a decent price, look at the "Four Horsemen Super Sampler" here: http://www.holts.com/category.html?id=86664. That's not a bad deal at all.

Holy crap, don't know much about the new La Aromas, but those are some great cigars for the price!
[Reply]

Trend going on here, I have not tried any of these.
[Reply]

Haven't bought any NCs for a while except singles at the B&M, went ahead and pulled the trigger.
[Reply]

Good call Tom. I am thinking about that one myself.
[Reply]

Yeah, with the Anejos and Padrons on top of the ESGs, don't know how you could go wrong, Larry.
[Reply]

Good for you, brother. Merry Christmas from you to you! Enjoy. :-)
[Reply]

I didn't think of it that way, Thomas, but, Hey! Right! Merry Xmas to me. :-)
[Reply]

That is a good price, and free shipping :-)
