Illusione Haut 10 Churchill

The Illusione Haut 10 was introduced for Illusiones 10th anniversary, and was developed to show the world that they were capable of developing an ultra premium cigar. And in typical Illusione style, they developed a real doozy. Using a blend of Nicaraguan Criollo 98 and Nicaraguan Corojo 99 long-leaf filler tobaccos along with a Nicaraguan binder leaf, the blend is topped with AAA Grade Nicaraguan Café Claro Corojo wrapper. The blend features complex, perfectly balanced flavors of coffee, cocoa, cedar, and nuts with hints of honey, cream, and pepper. This harmonious blend is a home-run blend that will redefine the way you think about Illusione cigars.

One of our favorite aspects of the cigar industry is the cast of characters that lead some of today’s cigar companies. Some are reclusive and would rather focus on their craft while others are outspoken and ostentatious. However, they all share a passion for outstanding tobacco. Dion Giolito, Illusione’s founder, is what you might call a “super tobacco nerd.” He has a passion for seeking knowledge about different types of tobacco and how they work together when creating a blend. And he’s quite good at it too. It’s why Illusione has garnered a well-deserved reputation and accolades for creating cigars that are known for their balance and intricacy.
