Illusione

Illusione is a small-batch boutique brand created by Dion Giolito who often references his fascination with conspiracy theories throughout his cigar portfolio. Among his more popular blends are Illusione Rothchildes and Illusione 88. A lustrous San Andrés wrapper leaf blankets a meaty core of all-Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos in Illusione Rothchildes to deliver a profile of earth, leather, nuts, and baking spices, handcrafted in Nicaragua. Illusione 88 is handmade in Honduras from a reddish-brown Rosado wrapper leaf over a potent but balanced recipe of Nicaraguan long-fillers in a bold display of wood, cocoa, black pepper, leather, and coffee beans.
