Asylum 13 Megalophobia 13" * 134

The Asylum Limited Edition series is an annual-release premium cigar that celebrates this sought-after brand’s anniversary. The Asylum brand is known for making big, hefty sticks that are as big in flavor as they are in size. The cigars are handmade at the CLE factory in Honduras.

The Giant was tipically a 9 inch by 52 cigar. Today, it is every cigar 8 inches and up with a ring gauge of 50 and up.

Most cigars are round in shape, as this is how the cigars are rolled by the torcedor.

Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Honduras, a Central American country which shares a border with Nicaragua, is widely known in the premium cigar industry as the ideal place to grow Cuban and Connecticut seed tobaccos. Danli and the Jamastran Valley is considered the heart of Honduras’ cigar industry. The Jamastran Valley is known for producing a full-bodied tobacco that draws strong comparisons to the tobacco grown in the Pinar del Rio region of Cuba. This same region is also known for its Connecticut shade grown and Corojo shade grown tobacco. In addition, Honduras produces Cuban-seed sun grown filler tobaccos of the highest quality.

Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Maduro wrapper can go from dark coffee brown with a reddish tint to blackish brown (the latter also called Oscuro).

Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.

CLE Cigar Company was founded in 2012 by Christian Eiroa, previously president of Camacho Cigars. Their cigars are produced in their Aladino Factory in Danli, Honduras, and in their Wynwood factory in Miami.

The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
As its name implies, an Unknown binder is made of tobacco that is not known or that the manufacturer did not disclose.
