What's up with Illusione's?

[Irritech]

Anyone try these yet? If so, what do ya think of em? I sure have been hearing alot of chatter on these. Won't be long before I'm gonna have to try em. :sadpace:

CAO newest

Illusions are VSGs.
Visions are the new CAOs.
The Illusion is just a popular size(6.5x44, I think) in the VSG lineup.

I thought Vision was CAO's newest, maybe another?

 

[tedski]

I'm confused ... but I found these via Google:

Illusione Cigars

Seems these are sold via Tower Cigars in N. Calif.

Also, according to a post on HP, these are made by a small, subsidiary factory of Tabacalera Tropical called Tabacalera Valley Jalapa. They debuted at RTDA in 2005 (at Pete Johnsons' booth, although they have no business relationship).

[Boppa-Wasch]

Ok then... I'm glad that's been cleared up!

 

[Irritech]

Ted linked to the cigar website.

I wasn't sure if that was the right one.

I've had a couple of the 68 size. What a wonderful cigar! Powerful & peppery, yet full bodied richness - imagine the Nicaraguan version of a Siglo I! I'll be trying the other sizes over the next few weeks, but my tobacconist says the 68 is the best of the line. We'll see.

 

[tedski]

Thanks Dale! I'll probably avoid that one as I don't care for peppery cigars. I'd like to investigate the 2/3 though as I think culebras are cool shapes.

Did you get them at Barlow's? Any idea if they've got the culebras?
Also, any plans for the quarterly herf yet?
