San Cristóbal (by Ashton) Clasico

5" X 50

Another great cigar that I was was smoking while watching playoff baseball. This cigar had an impeccable wrapper and is very dark. The thing that struck me first was that it was a really firm thoroughly packed cigar. Upon lighting the draw was perfect and the cigar burned forever and produced tons of beautiful white cool smoke. the ash was firm and held as long as I wanted it to. This cigar combined the oomph of the Pepin Black Label with the refined richness of the Ashton VSG, which makes a lot of sense considering the origin of this cigar. I will do a full crazy write up of this stogie the next time I try one, but I can tell you now, they are very good.
