[MrHappy]

What do you guys think? What would you buy?

[Craig Mac]

Herrera Esteli every time

 

[mwlabel]

Total opposite, I'd go for the Illusione every time.

 

[KoreanCowboy]

Illusione but only because I've had plenty of aged ones and they are incredible with 2 + years on them. The Herreras are very good in general, but haven't had an aged one so I don't know how they will turn out.

 

[King Kill 33]

Not a fan of the HE and have never had an Illusione R yet. In the end, it's up to you what you would rather have in your humidor!

HE in the summer/daytime
R in the winter/nighttime

Illusione R is a huge +1.............but love them both

 

[UnBanded]

A 5'er of each, both are fantastic. For the Herrera, I like the Short Corona Gorda or Lonsdale.

I thought those had only been out since beginning of March this year ?!?!?!

Was referring to Illusione in general on the aging. Not just the R. =-)

 

[MoJo]

Herrera Esteli every time

+1

Most people love the Rs, but I wasn't a big fan of them. Never been disappointed by an HE

 

[BigFoot]

H E's. the r is good for the price but the Esteli is just a fantastic smoke.

 

[skullnbones]

As far as bang for you buck goes it's really hard to beat the Illusione R. With that said, even though the bands a similar they are pretty different smokes but both are very good IMHO. Grab a 5'er of each if you're having a tough time deciding. If it were my money I'd rather have a cab of R's than a box of HE's

 

[UpInSmoke]

I regret my R cab buy(unless they age well) so Id go HE

 

[ascrivner]

What the hell? Buy them both

Noted!!!

I like them both in their own, so I am at no help. If you go the HE route then go Lonsdale.

 

[King Kill 33]

Don't be noting anything. I'm sore from the beatdown I took today. Will take a while to recover...
