Illusione ONEOFF

Illusione ONEOFF

A classic looking corona, this cigar had a creamy brown colored wrapper.  The pre-light nose was clean and light with dry cedar-like notes on the taste.  The draw had a very slight resistance and was incredibly smooth overall delivering a lot of smoke to the palate with ease.  There were spicy pepper notes when retro-haling the smoke with a slight bit of spice in the taste through the finish.  The aroma was light yet rich with sweet and spicy tones, with traces of cedar, mild earth and hay-like traits.  Spices lingered on the palate the more the cigar was smoked.  It had a lot of character and flavor with a medium body.  The burn was slow and even which produced a long dark gray ash.  This was an effortless cigar to enjoy that had a lot of spice, flavor and a very pleasant aroma.  Overall this was an easy to enjoy cigar that didn’t overwhelm the palate yet delivered a satisfying experience.   It was fairly complex, developing as it was smoked, with an intensifying flavor profile and aroma.
