 Asylum Toro Cigar Sampler


Asylum is a brand that has quietly climbed to the top and is becoming increasingly sought after, especially after being named one of Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 of 2013. Ever since his days of owning Camacho, Christian Eiroa has been known for one thing: BIG flavor. He may no longer be head honcho at Camacho but blending this line of smokes for Asylum owners Kevin Baxter and Tom Lazuka sure helps to continue his tradition. This sampler contains 10 Robusto to Toro-Sized Cigars 5” x 50 – 6” x 52 all with the signature Eiroa flavor profile.


Our Meet Your Maker (MYM) Asylum Toro Sampler includes the following cigars:


1 x Asylum 13 (6” x 52, ●●●●○ Medium-Full). A Nicaraguan puro made with only the finest of Nicaraguan tobacco which is aged to perfection. From the get-go you are hit with spice and leather that quickly gets your mouth watering. As you smoke this down, more flavors of sweetness and dark cocoa are introduced and seem to alternate with the leather you initially tasted. Each puff is an adventure and is sure to make you crazy thinking which notes you will get next.


1 x Asylum 13 Corojo (6” x 52, ●●●●● Full). The talented torcedors at Eiroa’s Fabricas Unidas factory have subverted the original’s Nicaraguan puro roots by blending and bunching a plethora of all-Honduran tobaccos for the filler. A Honduran binder is applied, and then they complete the transformation by straight jacketing each vitola in a thick Corojo grown in the sultry Jamastran Valley in Honduras. Sweet tobacco in the cold draw intensifies into a spicier, sweeter tobacco flavor in the burn, the cool flowing smoke and very creamy. After the first inch, the power has ramped up and there is cocoa and red pepper to let you know this cigar means business.


1 x Asylum 13 Ogre (6” x 52, ●●●●● Full). This barber pole design has a candela wrapper paired with the more traditional habano to give the Ogre a striking brown and green stripe. This is a fantastic full-bodied cigar with a lot of complexities in the flavors. Spice, leather, and cocoa are all notes you can expect, just like in the regular Asylum 13, but the main difference comes from the Candela wrapper. There is a grassy earthiness which is present from beginning to end due to this unusual wrapper.


1 x Asylum 13 Connecticut (6” x 52, ●●○○○ Mild-Medium). This stick has entwined juicy Honduran Corojo among the Habano leaves that serve as the rest of the filler and binder to give this glorious stogie plenty of strength and character. Then temper the insanity with a creamy Ecuadoran Connecticut wrapper for an entirely balanced experience. Sleek with oil, sturdily built, and redolent of cedar and nutmeg. A hefty dose of spice, a hallmark of Honduran Corojo, blends well with the more traditional wood and hay and roasted coffee flavors usually found in shade-enveloped cigars. Creamy and rich from top to bottom, you will resist laying it down for a long, long while.


1 x Asylum Schizo (6” x 50, ●●●○○ Medium). A Nicaraguan puro designed by company co-founder Christian Eiroa in the ‘sandwich’ style using trimmings from the Asylum Premium, each stogie contains a plethora of flavors entrusted by their creator to defy convention. An open draw is to be expected, offering unimpeded access to the leather and cocoa which form the base profile. You might have to occasionally keep the burn from going off the rails, but as the smoke continues to fling cedar and cream and black pepper at your palate, you’ll decide that some amount of supervision is worth the visit.


1 x Asylum Schizo Maduro (6” x 50, ●●●○○ Medium). The Maduro version is very different from the regular Asylum Schizo line. Rather than being a Nicaraguan Puro like the original, this cigar is made in Eiroa’s Honduran factory using a filler blend of Honduran tobaccos and a dark San Andres Maduro wrapper. The change in the blend, as well as the Maduro wrapper, add to the body and flavor. Clocking in at a medium body, there are hints of cocoa and earth from the moment you light this cigar up until you are ready to put the nub down. Asylum Schizo Maduro is still mild enough to enjoy any time of day, but the flavor is ramped up just enough to hold up against a strong coffee.


1 x Asylum Insidious (6” x 52, ●●○○○ Mild-Medium). Containing an expertly cured blend of Honduran tobacco as filler and binder, each stick is finished with a smooth, creamy Ecuadoran wrapper topped with a lightly sweetened cap resulting in a flavor-bomb that won't leave you crying for mommy. Smokers will experience subtle honey-like flavors delivered during the first third, but the vast majority will delight in the cedar and toasted nut flavors that serve as companions. The sweetness mutates into maple syrup during the second and final thirds, but its influence slowly wanes as earth and plum and black pepper all become more pronounced.


1 x Asylum Insidious Maduro (6” x 52, ●●●○○ Medium). This stick has a blend of rich Honduran tobaccos hand selected for their mouth-watering appeal, it bears a toothy Mexican San Andreas wrapper so dark and oily it’s like staring into the infernal abyss that is an empty humidor. The aroma exuded by the cigar certainly brings the funk, less an ominous foreboding and more the promise of a rollicking good time. The nectar-like goodness on the cap is nearly gone but not forgotten, a lingering influence on the cream and cocoa and spice that forms the foundation of the smoke’s profile. From a mild beginning, the strength reaches a solid medium near the midpoint and remains so through to the end.


1 x Asylum Insidious Habano (5” x 50, ●●●●○ Medium-Full). This cigar is all Honduran, including the expertly fermented Jamastran wrapper that is finished with a lightly sweetened tip. The solidly constructed barrel of each luscious puro displays a level of quality construction usually reserved for handmade costing twice as much, and your mouth will water from the crisp aroma. Beginning seemingly mild with some cream and white pepper notes, you will soon realize you have been had once the thick clouds of smoke begin carrying medium-full blasts of black coffee, leather, cedar, and cinnamon directly to the pleasure center of your soul.


1 x Asylum (6” x 50, ●●●●○ Medium-Full).  Asylum, also known as Asylum Premium, boasts a rich blend of Nicaraguan filler and binder tobacco finished with a dark Nicaraguan wrapper leaf. This cigar is on the heavy side of medium-full, but beautifully balanced and never overpowering. As Asylum always offers an easy draw, one can expect heavy amounts of thick, blue smoke, widely proclaiming everything that makes Asylum so amazing. Smooth notes of coffee and chocolate compliment the initial cedar blast and earthy core, while a plethora of Nicaraguan spice dances across the palate throughout.
