One of the largest cigars to ever go on sale is now heading to stores.

The Asylum 90 x 9 April Fools’ began shipping today. As the name implies, the cigar measures 9 inches by 90 ring gauge, making it one of the largest cigars to ever be made for commercial purposes. The company posted a picture of the cigar on April Fools’ Day earlier this year and said that the response from fans was strong enough that it decided to sell some.

As for the blend, it’s made entirely of Honduran tobacco. Asylum is arguably the brand best known for its large ring gauge cigars including a plethora of 60, 70 and 80 ring gauge cigars.

It has an MSRP of $40 per cigar and comes in a coffin.
