Illusione Epernay Le Ferme Cigar – Box of 25

The Illusione Epernay Le Ferme Cigar is a Nicaraguan puro handmade in Honduras. It uses a light, shade-grown Corojo ’99 wrapper. The filler tobaccos are sourced from Nicaragua, aged to ensure a balanced profile. The cigar measures 5 1/4 x 48, featuring an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper noted for its oily texture and smooth combustion.

Flavor Profile and Smoking Experience

• Initial notes: Creamy and earthy tones, with mild spice from the Ecuadorian Habano wrapper.
• Mid-smoke: Nicaraguan fillers deliver wood and earth notes, complemented by subtle sweetness reminiscent of citrus and cream.
• Strength: Medium-bodied, designed to evolve gradually without overwhelming intensity.

Product Line Context

Part of Illusione’s Epernay series, the Le Ferme emphasizes a sweeter, fruit-forward character compared to the original Illusione cigars by Don Giolito. The name references Épernay, a French municipality associated with Champagne, reflecting the blend’s fruity and sweet undertones.

Wrapper and Combustion Details

The Ecuadorian Habano wrapper contributes to the cigar’s consistent burn and nuanced flavor development. Its construction allows for a prolonged smoking session, enabling the flavors to transition smoothly from earthy beginnings to creamy, sweet finishes.
