In 2021, Illusione loosened up their tight-knit portfolio, collaborating on projects that may have caught fans of the brand off guard. For starters, company owner, Dion Giolito, blended the PIV Robusto for actor Jeremy Piven. And then there's the Illusione TAA Exclusive 2021, marking the company's first-ever blend for the Tobacconists’ Association of America (TAA).
Yes, each year, roughly a dozen of the industry's biggest names showcase unique and limited cigar creations for the TAA, allowing tobacconists that are members of the association to offer these special treats to their customers. For Illusione, the cigar falls under their Cigars Privé collection, where Dion has been known to craft limited blends for individual retailers, etc. The Illusione TAA Exclusive 2021 cigar is rolled in a singular 6¾" x 52 toro extra format, making use of Nicaraguan AGANORSA tobaccos throughout the entirety of the blend.
What does the Illusione TAA Exclusive 2021 cigar taste like?
The Illusione TAA Exclusive 2021 cigar is medium-full in body and layered in complexity, evolving slowly throughout the experience with flavors of cedar, white pepper, almond butter, and touches of rustic leather.
