    Default Illusione 68

    Corona or Petit Corona sized cigar

    This is a litte known name at least it was the first time I herad it when I was given this cigar in a trade.

    To be honest it should be on the list to try for anyone who is not familiar with it.

    It has a velvety brown wrapper with very thing slightly noticable veins. Has a triple cap and a great construction. It is filled nicelly yet produced a very comfortable pull. I used my Palio to "circumsize" the cap and the ciga lit up quite nicelly.




    Burn was sharp without any inconcistencies. Flavor was amazing. It had lots of spices but without being harsh. As a matter of fact I can even say that the spices very surrounded by a very aromatic and soft background flavors. To be honest I only has simiar experinces with ISOMs So the total experince is sort of racy spices with smooth undertones if that makes any sense.





    As the cigar progressed the flavor profile was sort of the same just playing with the strength of the spiciness back and forth. To be honest I would say that the overall flavor was complex. It played such a pleasant symphony on my taste buds that I did not even care to try to discern all the flavor nuances that were preasant but just straight out enjoyed the experience


    And as a result
