Default I did not know....

That Illusione MJ12's were so good! I had one two years ago, and I remember it being a "good cigar". I had one this evening that i've probably had since March/April and it was a phenomenal cigar! I think the pairing of diet coke really enhanced the experience. Sad thing is, i think i may only have one more of these left. Now i want to try it with the Maduro wrapper!

Please don't think that you need to buy a diet coke to enjoy this
cigar because that's clearly not the case. I just happened to be
drinking one at the time!

Every Illusione I have had has been nothing short of fantastic. I am definately a big fan of their line up and will always seek out new ones I have not had. These are all very, very good smokes.

Weird, I am not a fan of their stuff...but after smoking a few of the maduros...what a difference a wrapper makes on a stick. I have fallen in love with the maduro 88s.

I had to make a choice when i bought the cg4's i couldn't afford to buy
them, and a box of 88's after a i read your comment, so i went with the
size that best fits my preferences. In the end it was Pete's (Johnson)
comment that won me over with the cg:4's. (Fellow brother's of the leaf
opinion's tend to influence a lot of my purchases when i'm on the fence about
something....) At other times i'm just hellbent on getting something so I end
up getting it.

88s are my favorite, mj12 has a special place in my heart just because of the name. I had a mj12 with a year of rest on it, and it was phenomenal! Unfortunately I havent had any of the Maduros yet.

I recently picked up 2 of each CG4 maduro, 88 maduro, 888 maduro. I haven't smoked any of them yet but I'm really looking forward to it.
