Asylum Cigars

[scroggers]

Anyone else think this sounds like a good name for a line of cigars??? Any chance this could happen?? Maybe CFO of GDw cigars. Just curious.

[smokeyandthebandit05]

I think we could do it. Like for example work something out with Rob at taboo and he could hook us up with a factory and such

[Cigary]

What kind of cigar or would there be a several types? The name says a lot and I'd love to see a cigar sell with this name on it.

[jbonnefsc]

I'll chip in $5 bucks toward development...It's all got right now...


Seriously though, not only is it a great name, but cigars designed by a true brotherhood...wow...talk about some serious stuff.

There would be like smoking pure honor, liberty, and fraternity.

Not sure the human body could take it...

Plus, we'd all get a cut, right? :lv

[GWN]

Gotta be something crazy though. How about candela wrapper around triple ligero binder and filler tied in a knot?

[BlackIrish]

If they're a success, we could set up a retail business.

What do you think of BOOYAH as a name?

:D

We could us a straight Jacket for the band??

[kayaker]

I'd buy a few Asylum Cigars. We could do a poll for size and flavour profile (leaf types). I'd say, keep it simple starting out. One model only based on the most popular design.

I like the straight jacket band idea. At least a cool graphic like that on the band.

If it turns into a success, we could then release other versions or special editions.

Do we have enough real interest for this?

[poker]

Easy there guys. One thing at a time.

[Pipe&Cigar]

BoooooYahhh! :D

[kayaker]

Easy there guys. One thing at a time.

Come on poker. You know you waannnnaaa. :D

[tobii3]

some vitola names to ponder....

Redrum....

Helter Skelter....

Maybe The Taboo Thorazine Triple Twist???

[scroggers]

The question is who on here could make this happen?? And would the mods be willing to do this????

[poker]

we can make it so if needed. If and when it happens, you'll all be the first to know.

We have the technology. We can make it bigger. Faster. Stronger.

[MithShrike]

Yeah Cigar Live got George Rico from Gran Habano to make the LIVE cigar. We should be able to do this.

[Skywalker]

I'd buy that for a dollar!!!:D

[poker]

Whoh! STOP!

Listen folks, while we are all flattered that you want cigars with the Asylum name on it, it will happen when the Team of 11 agrees that the time is right. I am asking you to be patient and we will see what happens.
Once again, the seed has been planted and we hear you, but right now is not the time.

Thanks for understanding.

[jbonnefsc]

How about some of our favorite members for sizes? I'll take three Macms, a Da Klugs, and a Mean Darrell...

[AriesOpusX]

Yeah lets cut these guys some slack they have their hands full right now I'm sure, we're off to a running start but it is just the start. Theres plenty of money to be lost in starting your own cigar line. :2

[Pipe&Cigar]

LOL... that means they would all have to be Petite or smaller with those names. :D

I wasn't trying to push anything or step on anybody's toes. I was just more or less thinking out loud. WE do alot of group buys and thought this would be a cool idea for one!! :ss

[theonlybear4CORT]

do we puff on the cigars?

[jbonnefsc]

Too soon...

Same here. I'm interested, but I'm also ready to wait for the right time.:cb

[GWN]

Alright, you got me there!

How can anyone not like a box of poon?

[kgraybill]

Poon Pokers in cello.:r

[LasciviousXXX]

LOL you guys are crazy!!!!

Keep in mind guys that development on a new cigar and blend etc etc can take anywhere from 1 to 2 years before you actually see a finished product (sometimes longer) so while the idea is cool, it'd be awhile before we saw any available for sale

Can't you just reband some 1492's or something? :D

[LasciviousXXX]

SURE! If you can steal them from Dave's Humi I'll be more than happy to reband them :D

[shaggy]

i wanna be on the taster development team....:r

[Don Fernando]

how about a "regional" sort of thing. Instead of a Bolivar "edicion asia" we could have a Bolivar "asylum" :D

[MajorCaptSilly]

I'll take 2 boxes of XXX "The Hog"

I'm, too sexy for my drum, too sexy for my drum, I ain't dumb, I ain't dumb...

[poriggity]

Yeah Cigar Live got George Rico from Gran Habano to make the LIVE cigar. We should be able to do this.


which, imho, taste like garbage. George Rico can make some good cigars, G.A.R. for instance, but the LIVE stuff sucks.

[stearns]

i smell 11 EL's coming out. too bad nobody would want the band with the XXX on it :D:D

[taltos]

Put me down for a box of Old Sailors. Has a nice ring, don't it?:ssThe only problem is that you would have to wait forever for delivery.:ss

[BC-Axeman]

Whatever happened to this idea? >poke, poke<
Can't be too hard to do. Back in the '90s everyone had a cigar named for them.

[Dukeuni]

I like this idea, kind of like what we did with the CA edition Boswell Pipe. Still my favorite pipe.

[Blueface]

Yeah, I still have a whole box of "puff" laying around.:r

[weak_link]

Don't we only need to order 500 boxes to get our own cc RE? :r

[LasciviousXXX]

Problem with a brand new cigar/blend is that it requires a substantial amount of time to develop and get the blend right. 1-2 years minimum. Consider that and the SUBSTANTIAL amount of money you'd have to put down first and its an idea that would become a HUGE project.

Now if you're talking about adding a second band to an existing line of cigars that's not as hard..unless of course you're talking about Habanos in which case "officially" its a no go since we are a board based in America.

Yep 500 boxes would be the minimum but you have to remember the group that did that was based in Europe.

And besides "Club Epicur" is already taken :r

[htown]

Yeah Cigar Live got George Rico from Gran Habano to make the LIVE cigar. We should be able to do this.

And that was such a whopping success.

[LasciviousXXX]

The real issue IMO would be making a cigar not only the TOE would be happy with but the majority of the CA board would be happy with.

I have to say as a group we all have fairly high standards. A rush job to get something out would not live up to standards :2

Duh, just make them taste like 80's Davidoffs and it will be a smashing success. Easy-peasy lemond-aide squeezy? :r

[akumushi]

How about the "Blueface." Every one would be plugged.

[BC-Axeman]

Cool! I am still waiting for the BC-Axeman Triple Maduro!! :D
And the icehog3 barber pole. :D

Unfortunately, I would end up with the pnoon (infused) Ass-id :pn

The 400th is much easier than the first. ;)

Indeed. They could bang a blend out in a week for us. The Imperial Asylum Nepalese Legacy Micro Batch has a nice ring to it :hm

If this did happen, could it be a job for Mr. Madera?

[icehog3]

Learn sumpthin new every day.

Learn sumpthin new every day.

You did?

Wow. I still haven't recovered from the sheer awesomeness of "never forget to keep them (cigars) in humidor, its really necessary to keep them away from moisture" post (http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showpost.php?p=786034&postcount=3514).

The one about quadrant hinges was pretty spiffy too.

[Darrell]

No.

I vote it's a job for Taboada.

The great thing about this community is the constant learning curve, Adam.

I didn't know about the quadrant thing either.

[T.G]

No.

I was hoping for Gene Arganese...

[pds]

Easy there guys. One thing at a time.

Great idea, and I nominate you for Chief Executive Smoker. :D

[colinb913]

Why dont we make a poll with different options, for filler, and wrapper combos? I am all in on this one!

[sodomanaz]

Anyone remember the Cigar Live cigar? That was a fiasco and a half... then later on when they were wholesaled completely... man, that whole thing tore the community apart before Craputo even got to it.

[icehog3]

Why dont we make a poll with different options, for filler, and wrapper combos? I am all in on this one!

Because none of the TOE have the capabilities to make this a reality.
