Wish I coulda gotten a few while they were around. I didn't get into Illusione cigars until this past year.

One thing that confuses me is knowing if cigars have a different blend or if they are just different sizes.

As you see they list a lot of different cigars under Classic. But are they different blends?

Does the blend vary on the 88 Robusto from the CG:4 Corona Gorda? MJ12? MK? HL? F9?

Short answer: Yes, they do vary in my opinion.

Cool. I'll have to run some splits in the future on a few boxes. Cigars International seems to have best prices on them. I usually use SeriousCigars but they are like $40.00 higher on a box of 88 Robusto's.

As for now though I got too many damn cigars! haha. Guess its better too have too many than too few.

Maybe a little in that you can't fit the same leaves in a lancero as you can a robusto as you can a corona gorda. You'll see more of a difference between those cigars and the Epernay line.

There's a shop near me that had some Nosotros in stock a couple months ago and they were good. I've had a handful of 13s and they're equally good stuff. Of the different sizes the corona larga wowed me the most and I WILL be ordering a bundle when I get a chance.

I was a fan of the nosotros when they first came out and put several boxes down to rest. I started smoking them about 8 months later.....went through 2 boxes in about 3 months.. took a break from them and started smoking the 13's I had that had been down for about 6 months.... (JD gave them to a couple of us at Cigar Safari)....
The nosotros and 13 are completely different cigars.... but both excellent with age. I am down to my last box of nosotros now.... and they are smoking awesome... I think they will impress for years to come. JMHO.

I smoked one of the OR 6x60's that a local b&m put in a grab bag and it
was actually pretty good! (I never smoke that big of a cigar normally)

Just throwing this out there, but my local B&M still has a bunch of Nosotros, for anyone that may be looking. Have had a few, didn't blow my skirt up, but such is life (in a skirt).
