There’s not much more to it other than the Illusione Epernay L’Alpiniste cigar is good. Really good. Like, rated 94 good. Ranked in the top 3 worldwide the year after it came out good. Sell your possessions, ship the kids to grandma’s house, and lock yourself in while you smoke each and every one you have good. Sure, we get that there are some of you not already familiar with Illusione, and that’s something that needs to be remedied with the quick review. Enigmatic brand owner Dion Giolito is a quiet man who creates the kind of big sticks you definitely want to carry. His various blends have won accolades and acclaim the world over. And of course here we have the Epernay, a Nicaraguan Puro chock full of Corojo and Criollo longleaf that is his crowning achievement.


With a Café Rosado wrapper that’s oilier and darker than you might expect, an Illusione Epernay L’Alpiniste is an impressive sight even when sitting among many others in a crowded humidor. On its own, each vitola exerts an influence over the aficionado to cause the mouth to water and the eye to gleam. Cut, light, sit back and enjoy. Discover first rich and savory cream and toasted nuts. Some nutmeg and other baking spices enter at the sweet spot, not overwhelming but warm and inviting. Lush, floral-scented clouds of smoke introduce the arrival of leather and stone fruit flavors that flourish during the second third, while the last long moments of the cigar are full of mocha, cedar, and honey.


Completely topped off with flavor, the Illusione Epernay L’Alpiniste is nonetheless a mild to medium strength stogie that stands as a delicious companion to a cold brewed coffee, a hot tea, a dram or two of Speyside Scotch, or a flute of the finest champagne. It’s worth whatever it takes to get as many of these scrumptious smokes in your hand as possible, but we here at CigarPlace have got your back with the best prices around. As always.
