Today I tried the brand new Ashton-made San Cristobal. This is Ashton’s all Nicaraguan cigar that was just released this month. The Fabuloso is a torpedo sized at 6.125×52. The presentation on this cigar is very nice with a dark oily Nicaraguan wrapper. The flavors exhibit earthy, spicy tones but seemed to be a bit one dimensional. The draw was nice and the burn was even. Overall I rate the San Cristobal at a B-.

I believe Don Pepin makes this cigar and Ashton is just marketing and selling it. I haven’t had the chance to try one yet but I’m really looking forward to it.

We have the Ashton San Cristobal Fabuloso and Clasico in stock. These are hard to find right now. I’d say that the people that like these would be the Ashton ESG / VSG lovers. Same kind of cigar.
