Since this is a first impressions I will let the video do the talking on this Illusione Singulare Phantom 2010.
I will say it is a Nicaraguan puro and will run you around $150 for a box of 15. Grab them now if you want to try them as they are also limited to 1000 boxes.

So you did get your Perdomo lighter. The stick sounds nice. I agree that if you’re being charged $10+, they should ensure that the cigars won’t be so easily susceptible to damage. I would think that by the time they’re ready to box up, fermentation would not be an issue.
Hope you guys have a blast at CigarFest!

I believe that my local B&M mentioned that he might have them next week. Have to give it a shot. Flavor profile sounds great. Thanks for the review.
Nice one again! I was so depressed when I heard that Illusione will not be imported to Europe, the only time I got to smoke one it was a CG4 White Horse and I absolutely loved it!
Nice review Mikey. I’ve had a few sitting in the humidor now for a few months but haven’t lit them up. Can’t wait now. Have fun at cigar fest
Great review Mike. I agree with you. I think it’s a lot stronger then Dion says 🙂 I’d put it above the Epernay. Maybe becuase it’s smooth he states it’s milder. Not sure?
Nice review! You’ve come a long way in your review style, Mike (please take that as a compliment, lol).
I’ve only had one of these, but I too didn’t find it “mild,” easily into the medium range, probably just under the Epernay for me (in terms of strength).
Flavor-wise, I LOVED this thing. It had a unique flavor profile, and I liked it. I’m still trying to decide whether I need to find a box, as I only have 4 left.
