Illusione OneOff +53 Super Robusto 2021 (FRW)

[sho671]

I heard a rumor that this cigar had Cuban tobacco because +53, Cuba's country code, was in the name. I didn't necessarily believe it but I was intrigued. I picked up a few during a sale. The first puff after lighting the cigar was very nutty. I retrohaled my second puff which was a mistake because it caused a wicked wasabi burn in my nostrils. The second half brought forward a bitter grass that transitioned to a creamy woodiness in the last third. The subsequent retrohales weren't as harsh but a little pepper was present. I couldn't tell you if this thing that Cuban tobacco or not, but I doubt it.

3/5

I've had one of those as well. I doubt there is Cuban tobacco in it likewise. But I enjoyed it. Nice review.
