Selected by Cigar Aficionado as the 2015 #6 Cigar Of The Year – Rated 94


The #6 Cigar Aficionado cigar of the year Illusione Ultra Op. No. 9 cigar was conceived out of brand owner Dion Giolito's most popular cigars, the Illusione ULTRA. Originally a product Dion thought was too strong for the market, the Illusione ULTRA was released in small quantities in 2008 in the size. After much demand, Dion announced plans to offer ULTRA again in 2011. Like the rest of the award-winning Illusione line these are made at the Raíces Cubanas factory in Danlí, Honduras using all Nicaraguan tobacco. Raíces Cubanas is responsible for award-winning Illusione products like the Epernay, as well as Viaje cigars and Alec Bradley's popular Family Blend, Prensado and Tempus lines.


Ultra Op. No. 9 Toro uses a dark oily Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper with Nicaraguan fillers, mainly Jalapa and Estelí Ligero. The goal with ULTRA was to create a full-bodied, full flavor and full strength cigar, and Dion did just that. It starts with a heavy dose of spice, hearty earths, rich cedars, great leathers and complex chocolate. For those that enjoyed the original ULTRA, the new versions of the ULTRA are a great reminder of one Dion Giolito's classic cigars. If you are expecting anything other than full flavor and full strength, the Illusione ULTRA will leave you highly confused.
