Founder Robert Levin, established the Ashton cigar brand during the early 1980s. As a veteran of the cigar industry, Levin’s upbringing in the 1950s and 60s revolved around working in his father’s cigar shop. He took the reigns of the business in the 1970s and after several years of steady growth, Levin applied his ambition to create his own cigar brand.

Thus Ashton cigars were introduced to the market in 1985 and shortly thereafter, Levin began a collaboration with the legendary Fuente family, a partnership that brought to Ashton the Fuentes unparalleled talent, devotion, and enthusiasm for premium tobaccos and second-to-none cigar craftmanship. Carlos Fuente Sr. and his son, Carlito Fuente, had been making premium cigars for generations, this partnership was the perfect fit, and Ashton flourished.

Levin successfully expanded the Ashton portfolio to meet the changing preferences of cigar enthusiasts by introducing several iconic blends, including the original Ashton Classic, Ashton Aged Maduro, Ashton Cabinet, Ashton VSG, Ashton ESG, and more. To this day, the company adheres closely to the formula of brand building, longevity, and tradition.

To this day, Ashton Cigars is a father-and-son collaboration, with Robert Levin and his son, Sathya Levin, at the helm. Together, they maintain and expand the company’s extensive reputation for crafting premium cigars of superior quality with prestige brands. The Levin and Fuente families share a common ambition to produce the world’s finest cigars. This is the true foundation of their partnership, and the result is an ever-thriving cigar portfolio of classic Ashton cigars.

      The <i>Ashton VSG Illusion</i> started with the usual hint of black pepper which lasted throughout the cigar. This is almost a surreal combination with the creaminess the VSG emits but a combination that continues to draw me back to this cigar. The volume of smoke and rich flavor made me anticipate each puff. Toward the end what I describe as a bit of hazelnut kicks in and if my fingers were a bit smaller I could have probably taken one more puff before scorching my fingers; the usual finish to a great cigar.
