Illsione 888

While on a 3 day duck hunting trip my wife got me an Illusione 888 with a green wrapper...call me a newbie, but I've never seen one before. The shop just got a bunch in which aren't moving according to the person who helped her....anybody hear or see of these? Going to fire it up tonight!

    I haven't seen them anywhere, but I have heard of them. It's a candela wrapper. Let us know what you think, I'd be interested in trying one.

    Yea, I've heard of them but haven't seen them yet either. Damn sure interested in what the candela wrapped version is like.

    Illusion makes some good sticks as well as the Epernay brand. I'm sure the candela wrapper will be pretty good

    wow, didn't realize it was this hard to find! My wife says the salesperson told her they just haven't moved as people like them or hate them...going tomorrow to see what they have left. Will let you know how much I love it.

    Smoked an ~88~ Candela recently, and it was fantastic. I like Candelas, and this was about as good as they get.

    Got one at IPCPR but haven't smoked it yet. The guys smoking it there loved it. illusione is a hard cigar line to find anywhere. Around here they sell out fast.
