Illusione 68

by Juan Sanchez
March 22, 2020
in Sunday Cigar

Cigar Details

Wrapper: Nicaraguan Corojo 98’
Binder/Filler: Nicaraguan Criollo 98’

A chubby Petite Corona Cigar thats a snapshot of a lot of the Cigars Dion makes. I first smoke this cigar 7 Years ago and it was a Home Run. It became the best Cigar to walk from 42nd to 66th during the summer Months. I remember having a cold during one of those summers and hadn’t smoked a cigar in over 2 weeks. Still stuffy I smoked it and it was one of the most memorable flavors I’ve ever encoded.

Dion is passionate about Numerology so a lot of his Cigars are associated with number. The 68 is nicknamed “El Bombone” or Bon Bon. This is due to the richness in its profile.

Acquired: 2013

In this episode we talk about Dion and Illusione Brand, removing a cap, toasting the foot (how long do you toast a foot for), butane/torch lighters, cedar spills/matches, draw of a cigar, combustion on Boxed Pressed vs Parejo Cigars, premium cigars, optimizing a good experience with planning, the reach of a cigar, relighting a cigar, purple smoke, seeds and classifications.

If there are words or terms that you’re unfamiliar within this episode, we highly recommend you check out the Sunday Cigar Glossary.
