This is probably my favorite Asylum cigar. I actually bought a 10 box of these from Stag Tobacconist in Arizona. They're harder to find in my area, but if you see one. Get it.
I'm very big on presentation. I'm attracted to bands and creativity. When I saw a cigar wrapped in a straight jacket I knew I needed it.
Before lighting it I could smell leather and get a hint of it drawing unlit. Very sturdy construction and tight wrapper. Some veins. Not too oily but a nice semi gloss sheen.
First puffs give me a lot of smoke and spice. It's easy on the tongue but clears the olfactory system. The spice hits right in the back of the tongue nicely. Watching it burn gives a lot of smoke and goes evenly. This cigar will not fall apart in your mouth if you are out working or even just relaxing outback or in a lounge.
It's got a very smooth smoking experience. I'm about an hour into the stick and it's keeping all of its qualities. This is a very enjoyable cigar. I don't think I've had anything bad from Asylum.
I recommend this to smokers of all experience. It would pair well with Slipknot or some 80s thrash metal. I was listening to mix of Judas Priest and Slipknot while smoking this.
