Asylum Time Capsule Samplers Mark the End of an Era
Asylum Cigars has launched its final anniversary collection, the Asylum Time Capsule, marking the close of a tradition that began in 2019. The limited samplers bring together past anniversary releases and introduce the brand-new Asylum 13 Anniversary blend.
The Asylum Anniversary Tradition
In 2019, Asylum Cigars celebrated its seventh anniversary with the debut of the Asylum Seven. This blend marked the start of an annual series, released each year in two formats: the 11/18 perfecto (6 x 48/54/48) and the hefty 7 x 70.
Co-founder Christian Eiroa first introduced the 11/18 vitola during his time at Camacho, and it has remained a signature size for Asylum. Over the years, these anniversary cigars became a staple release for fan
The Final Chapter: Asylum Time Capsule
For 2025, the brand’s 13th anniversary, Asylum Cigars is ending the series. Instead of standard boxes, the company is releasing two special samplers, now shipping to retailers.
The Asylum Time Capsule includes cigars saved from every past release. Each sampler also contains the new Asylum 13 Anniversary blend, which features a Nicaraguan habano wrapper from the regular Asylum 13 line, but with a fresh twist: a Honduran binder and fillers of Colombian pinareño and Honduran tobaccos.
