About this cigar
The Asylum brand built its reputation on bold, unapologetic blends that reject convention, and the Asylum 13 Nicaragua exemplifies that philosophy. This 8x80 makes a statement: a substantial vitola that demands attention and rewards patience. The blend centers on Nicaraguan longfiller tobacco, delivering the peppery, woody character the region is known for, layered with earth and a subtle sweetness that emerges as the cigar settles. The experience unfolds in waves. The first third presents bright spice and cedar, followed by deeper notes of leather and cocoa in the second half. Strength builds steadily without becoming overwhelming, making this an ideal choice for experienced smokers who appreciate complexity without pretension. The 8x80 format gives the tobacco room to breathe, enhancing the interplay of flavors across a leisurely hour-plus smoke. This is the cigar for your lounge's discerning guests looking for substance. Pair it with bourbon after a steakhouse dinner or position it as a premium offering for clients who've moved beyond milder introductory smokes. A box of 20 gives you consistent inventory depth for the demand these blends generate.
