Illusione eccj
Decided to fire up my first Illusione eccj - WOW!

A little history:

To commemorate the fifteenth anniversary of European Cigar Cult Journal, the publication has commissioned Illusione for a special cigar to mark the occasion.

The e c c j 15th is a classic 5 5/8 x 46 vitola. The special blend is accentuated by a Corojo cover leaf of the Rosado Claro shade. Careful selection has been made with regards to the wrapper to bring clarity to the complex 6 blend, Nicaraguan puro cigar. There are 15 cigars per box and a run of only 300 boxes have been made for world-wide attention.

Shape: Corona Gorda
Size: 5 5/8 X 46
Burn: Perfect
Draw: Perfect
Construction: Flawless

This cigar is superb!

The first 2/3 is medium with loads of white pepper and cream.

The last third is a full-bodied black pepper bomb!

If you can get your hands on some, by all means do. You will be glad you did.

Re: Illusione eccj
Thanks for sharing, I have been trying to locate this cigar for quite some time! James Suckling of CA had some very nice comments on this smoke.

I have one of these in my Humidor, scared to smoke because I doubt I will be getting anymore.

Re: Illusione eccj
I am excited...I am going to a B&M this weekend that stocks Illusione! Plan on bringing some back, perhaps they will have one of these. We'll see.
