I had high hopes for this Asylum 13 Ogre Barber Pole Lancero by Asylum 13 Cigars but…

Oh me, oh my… quite different from its Ogres Habana wrapped sister that I smoked the other day… but of course, how could I expect those deep rich earthy tobacco flavors with this cigar’s concoction of Candela and Nic Habana Maduro… it’s a Grassy Maduro!

Through a decent draw and the correct amount of resistance, smooth smoke delivers woody (later, it changes from cedar to a sharp oak), white pepper tobacco flavors with a decent slightly grassy, spicy retrohale.

I was becoming underwhelmed the more I smoked this Asylum 13 Ogre Barber Pole Lancero. I was hoping for more; after all, this specimen has been marinating for over a year in the TupperDor and, It was getting bitter at the last third. So it had to go.

I have one more left, so we’ll see… Probably next year in February 2023.
