Illusione Epernay Le Voyage Cigar – Box of 5

The Illusione Epernay Le Voyage cigar earned a 94-point rating and ranked among the top 3 global cigar releases the year after its debut. Created by Dion Giolito, this Nicaraguan Puro uses Corojo and Criollo longleaf tobaccos aged for 5-6 years, wrapped in an Ecuadorian Habano leaf. The 9¼" x 49 vitola delivers a condensed smoking session while maintaining the complexity of larger formats.

Flavor Progression

Initial draws reveal creamy wood and earth tones with citrus undertones. Mid-section transitions to almond, toasted bread, and nutmeg accents. The final third intensifies with hazelnut, coffee bean, and dark chocolate notes, finishing with cedar and caramel sweetness.

Construction Details

• Consistent burn rate across all five cigars in box
• Triple-seam cap ensures optimal airflow
• Ash holds for 1.5-2 inches before dropping

The Le Voyage variant maintains the Epernay line’s signature balance, using Estelí-grown ligero leaves for nicotine content under 18mg. Its compact size (45-50 minute smoke time) suits both experienced enthusiasts and newcomers exploring Nicaraguan tobaccos.
