Just prior to the 2016 IPCPR Trade Show, Illusione Cigars announced a major expansion to its portfolio. One of the new offerings is called Haut 10 – a new cigar to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the Illusione brand.
Haut 10 is described as a mild-bodied, complex cigar. The blend itself is said to be “Seco dominant” featuring tobaccos that are triple sorted in order to use the best materials. The cigar is a Nicaraguan puro featuring a Nicaraguan Cafe Claro Corojo.
The Haut 10 is available in one size – a 5 1/2 x 52 Robusto Extra. The cigars are packaged in twelve count boxes and each cigar is priced at $15.95.
