The Illusione #88 Robusto is a progressive new blend by Dion Giolito. Giolito's concept behind the Illusione #88 Robusto cigars was to rebuild a taste profile from old-world Nicaragua, pre-Sandanistas 1979, that would have mass appeal to the cigar smokers of today. He managed to create a blend that won over cigar smokers from all over. The Illusione 88 Robusto uses a top-grade, oily Colorado wrapper and first-generation Corojo and Criollo long-filler tobaccos to present a well-made, medium-to-full-bodied flavorful cigar.
The Illusione comes in several shapes and sizes and each one is unique in and of itself with its own special aromas and flavors. The Illusione #88 Robusto falls into the "Boutique Cigar" category as it is handmade, in very limited supply and high demand. Each one of the Illusione #88 Robusto cigars is triple-capped and beaming with woody, earthy, complex, oaky, cocoa flavors with a long-finish and enough spice to make sure you won't soon forget what you just smoked!
The concept behind the Illusione #88 Robusto cigars was to create a cigar that would appeal to modern-day smokers as well as reflect a particular taste-profile of an era of the Nicaraguan cigar industry in the early years. Dion listened to his fellow smokers from message boards and blogs and took their comments and constructive criticism to tweak and perfect the Illusione #88 Robusto cigars to his liking. The Illusione 88 Robustos are hard to come by, so grab a box while we have them in stock!
