ONLY 250 boxes of nine cigars. The nine is a reference to the nine innings that make up a professional baseball game.

This United Cigars Stadium Series I Asylum Green Monstah 7x70 cigar is made in Nicaragua. Outside, you'll find an Ecuadorian Candela wrapper. Inside, the binder is Nicaraguan, and the filler is also Nicaraguan. This is a Corona Gorda cigar with a length of 7.00 and a ring gauge of 70.

The Asylum Green Monstah is a 7 x 70 cigar like a baseball bat. It’s a fitting tribute to the Green Monster, which stands tall and proud out in left field at Fenway Park. Most long-hit balls dink off the 37-foot high wall, but a truly crushed pitch will sail over the ticketholders lucky enough to be sitting on the Monster a bit over 300 feet from home plate.

Sadly, you can’t smoke a cigar out there. But you CAN drink a Sam’s Wicked Fenway IPA or a Lord Hobo 617. It’s a refreshing treat on a hot summah day. When you get home, though, if the home team did good, you can bust out this wild cigar box and share some stogies with your buddies.

United Cigars ordered up a fieldhouse-looking box with Fenway’s famous green scoreboard along the side. Lift the cover, and you’ll see 9 cigars, one for each inning. Each one will be more than enough, given that Asylum rolled up some massive sticks for its Green Monstah blend. 7 x 70 might even be enough tobacco to last an entire modern baseball game!

The Nicaraguan-long filler blend is a classic tasty bunch of tobacco. The green candela wrapper, grown in Ecuador, is the pièce de resistance. The company had to go green for a cigar like this. Unlike standard tobacco leaves, candelas are heat-cured, a rapid process in a superheated barn. This locks in chlorophyll and gives the leaf green instead of the brown color you find with the leaf that is air-cured over longer periods.

Many people will know Nicaraguan tobacco's flavor is a touch of pepper, lovely cedar, and toasty nuts. But here, thanks to the candela, you get a grassy, tealike note that might transport you to a ballpark freshly landscaped.

What inspired the series? A United Cigars rep says, "The sounds at the ballpark have always been a part of my Spring… Now we have an Asylum cigar to smoke for opening day. Fenway Park is my Holy Cathedral, but we have a few more stadiums in mind for this stadium series.”

We can hear the pipe organ now…
