The Illusione “G” Gigantes is handmade in Nicaragua by Casa Fernandez and uses a Nicaraguan binder and Aganorsa long-filler tobaccos, which is surrounded by a dark Mexican San Andrés maduro wrapper.

The Illusione Allegria is considered the sister cigar to the Illusione OneOff. In fact, before it was part of Illusione’s “Book of Brands,” it was called the OneOff Allegria when first released in 2004. “Allegria” is Italian for “cheerfulness,” and this medium-strength premium cigar was made to turn any frown upside down with its next-level flavor. The Allegria sports a warm and inviting Honduran natural wrapper that expertly cloaks a Nicaraguan binder and a filler composed of Aganorsa Leaf tobaccos including the Viso Corojo 2006, which marks the first time Illusione has used this fairly potent tobacco in one of its blends. Handmade in Nicaragua, the Illusione Allegria truly captures the essence of Nicaraguan tobacco.

The Illusione Cruzado was originally released in 2008 as a medium bodied alternative to Illusione’s fuller bodied offerings. In 2016, it underwent a major rehaul and reemerged as a Nicaraguan puro with a very tempting, oily reddish Corojo tobacco wrapper. The cigar is hand crafted by Aganorsa Leaf in Nicaragua, and it is recognized for being indicative of the impressive tobacco that comes from this Central American country. It is a very box-worthy stick that should be part of every cigar enthusiast’s regular rotation.

Cheers to the next decade!

Illusione Cigars has brought back the OneOff and this time it’s here to stay. Originally made by Andrea Molinari, the OneOff rapidly became a cult classic in the early 21st century for being a cigar that was true to its Cuban roots at a time when Cubans were being regarded as lacking in quality. Now a part of the Illusione line of cigars, the OneOff is made in Nicaragua, and features a Honduran wrapper with a Nicaragua binder and filler.

Approaching the palate with notes of leather, black cherry, earth and floral sweetness, this full bodied, full flavored smoke is made with only Nicaraguan tobaccos.

When developing the blend for the Original Documents Habano cigar, Dion Giolito, the brand’s founder, didn’t want to create just another Habano cigar. He wanted to create something new and exciting. It is why he collaborated with master cigar crafter AJ Fernandez. To create the blend, AJ dug into his stash of proprietary of Sun-grown, Habano-seed tobacco for the wrapper. Then, he expertly blended it with a Nicaraguan binder and filler made of premium leaves from three of Nicaragua’s top-tobacco growing regions: Esteli, Condega, and Jalapa. The results? A full-strength, Nicaraguan puro that offers a delectable smoking experience. The cigars are handmade at AJ Fernandez’s San Lotano factory in Nicaragua.

Actor Jeremy Piven is well-remembered for his role as Ari Gold in the hit show “Entourage.” Twenty years ago, he started smoking cigars and slowly but surely, he became an aficionado so much so that he wanted to create his own cigar. He met with legendary boutique cigar crafter Dion Giolito of Illusione cigars. Dion agreed to help develop his cigar. Soon afterwards Jeremy launched The Jeremy Piven Collection and released his first cigar the PIV Robusto. It is a potent full-bodied premium cigar that is made of 100% Nicaraguan tobacco with an alluring, reddish Corojo wrapper from tobacco grown by Aganorsa Leaf in Nicaragua.

The Illusione Singulare is an annual limited edition cigar, which offers a different blend with each release. Due to its popularity, Illusione’s founder Dion Giolito decided to create a regular production cigar that encompassed the best components from the Singulare’s previous releases. Thus, the Illusione Singulare Origen was born. The Origen cigar sports a AAA Grade Corojo Cafe Rosado wrapper placed over Nicaraguan binder and a Criollo ’98 and Corojo ’99 filler. This savory blend offers a potent but not overwhelming smoking indulgence. The cigar’s band features an owl with its wings spread high, which was inspired by the Egyptian Owl of Pharaoh Ramses II. Based on an ancient Egyptian legend, the owl was one of Pharoah’s favorite pets, who apparently once smacked the mighty ruler with its wings. The cigars are handmade in Nicaragua.

In 2006, Dion Giolito founded Illusione Cigars. It soon became a big hit with cigar aficionados. But, in all its years, the brand has never released a cigar for the Tobacconists’ Association of America (TAA) until now. In 2020, Illusione joined this prestigious organization that is made up of the top tobacconists in the nation. It consists of about 80 retailers and 40 manufacturers, which Neptune Cigars is a proud member of. To commemorate this milestone, Dion created the Illusione TAA and released it in 2021. It is a Nicaraguan puro that is handmade by AGANORSA Leaf in Nicaragua. The blend is based off a flavorful, full-bodied personal blend that Giolito developed. According to Dion, “… it has all the characteristics of an Illusione cigar …” The Illusione TAA is a limited-edition cigar only 3,500 of 10 cigars per box were made so be sure to order yours today before they become an illusion.

Illusione Cigar’s founder and owner Dion Giolito’s The Group of Five is a line composed of five vitolas (sizes) using the same blend, which is shrouded in secrecy and everyone involved in its creation is keeping a tight lip. The line’s slogan “Whispering tongues are treachery” (written in both English and Latin) alludes to the secretive nature of this Nicaraguan release. Very little of it is known. The only thing being released about the blend is that it uses viso tobacco along with criollo ’98 and corojo ’98 tobacco leaves that were sourced from farms owned by Aganorsa Leaf. The tobaccos were carefully selected by Dion himself, and they were aged for 3 years prior to rolling. Dion is not ready to tell the full story of The Group of Five, but he hinted he will in the near future. Stay tuned.
