Virgin Sun Grown was launched in November 1999 and was the most successful product launch in Ashton's history. “Sun for the palate” describes this series very aptly. And that is to be taken literally. Only leaves from the upper sections of the harvest are selected for the brand; i.e. leaves that have received a lot of sun, which gives them an incredible amount of power. By the way, none other than Carlos Fuente Jr. is responsible for the blend. responsible for putting together Dominican tobaccos that had matured for four to five years for VSG. The wrapper comes from Ecuador, where it is grown exclusively for the VSG series.
