Smoked one this afternoon. Burned perfect, but for some reason I didn't like the cigar. Taste wise it wasn't there for me. I'm just glad I didn't have to pay for the one I smoked. Who likes these by the way?

Had one of the OR 20 yr churchills recently and had the same reaction. Good smoke, nubbed it, but it wasn't amazing or anything. Definitely not a $22 smoke.

IMO the VSG are 10 times better than the ESG.

I like the ESG Robo the best of the lot and better than the VSG's.

The ESG is one of my favorites. It's NOT strong by any means but it is the most complex cigars I've ever smoked. Perfect construction, burn and a ton of smoke. I haven't had the torp yet but want to try it and maybe add a box to the others. The 20 and 21s are the OR so they have some age on them. Maybe that's the diff.

I enjoy one from time to time

I have smoked a few of these and really liked them. I will not, however, be smoking any more. At 1/3 the asking price I'll buy them all day long. At the asking price, Levin can kiss my big fat butt!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A decent smoke, but not for the price.

[tafdom]

I don't think I paid but 250 or 275 for them so I'm fine with that. It's been a year so it's time to try another one. I woud have never have smoked 1 if they were that much. LOL

Just smoked an Ashton VSG Robusto, way better smoke than the ESG that I had and cheaper too!

The ESG Robustos are great. You can keep the Churchills.
