Cruzado

[bobarian]

Last night I had the pleasure of meeting Dion of Illusione cigars at West Coast Cigars. Many BABOTL's were there, Steve, Darrell(Mean One), Mikey, Pete, Darrell(MOBD) and Lance. We all got to sample the new Cruzado cigars.


All I can say is this is one great cigar. A Nic puro, primarily consisting of Criollo tobacco. The taste is unique. Quite dissimilar to the Illusione blend. More complex and meatier. I really enjoyed this cigar. Pleasant on the nose exhale all the way to the nub. I sampled a perfecto size in about a 44-46 rg, unfortunately these were not available for sale. Picked up a couple of singles, but due to California taxes, boxes were out of the question. It looks like these will retail in the $160-180 range. A definite must try.

The Cruzado is a great cigar and they are now in Reno. Got here Fri and will start to be shipped out Mon.

Will be buying some today!

Smoked one a month ago or so and was really pleased with it.

Yep, a great cigar. I smoked a corona and then bought a lonsdale, corona and a small size (44 x 4) that looks interesting.
I think Dion has a hit with this blend.

This is a damn good cigar. Smoking one as we speak. I found my newest "go-to: NC.

I cannot wait to try this. But as with all of Dion's cigars, it will probably be in high demand.
