Medulla Oblongata

Hand-rolled at Christian Eiroa's El Aladino factory in Danli, Honduras, Medulla Oblongata cigars use all-Honduran tobacco grown on Eiroa's legendary Corojo farm. The name references the part of the brain controlling breathing, blood pressure, and heart rate, fitting for Asylum's most ambitious release to date.

The blend comes in five sizes (5x50 Robusto through an 8x80) with your choice of Honduran Corojo or Mexican San Andres Maduro wrappers. Both formats are available: round parejo (Medulla) and box-pressed (Oblongata), since pressing changes burn rate and some say it shifts flavor, though that depends on the smoker.

The smoke runs exceptionally creamy, full-bodied, and balanced, with cedar, sweet spices, coffee, and caramel threading through every draw. Honduran tobaccos from this farm are known for exquisite color, flavor, and aroma, and it shows.

All sizes come in 5-packs, and 50-count boxes include 25 Medulla and 25 Oblongata. If you're looking for full flavor with complexity and creaminess in equal measure, Medulla Oblongata delivers.
