Illusione Epernay. Box dated December 2021. But my excitement was short lived when I opened the inner sleeve and found em to have mold...

Shop doesn't have that size in stock anymore, I asked if they would exchange it for a similar size, but that box is $7 more. Waiting to hear back. Problem is I used a $30 coupon and don't want to lose that $30 taking a refund otherwise I'd just take the refund and order the other size.

AF Don Carlos No. 3 (5.5"x44)

I like the Don Carlos but hadn't tried the original No. 3. I'm not sure when I picked these up but found a couple in my random Fuente box and boy they are good. I think the No.3 might be my new favorite Don Carlos.

PW, I wanted to ask if you have tried the 8-5-8 Candela and what are your thoughts on Candela? I know it’s a very light / mild tobacco but I was wondering if they have much flavor. Thanks

I've never tried a Candela. I thought about it once or twice but after reading descriptions I'm not sure it would be my thing. I suppose I'll probably pick one up some time but not going out of my way for it.

I personally like candela on occasion. The 858 is a good one.

I would try one Candela before buying several different cigars with candela wrappers. Candelas have a unique strong grassy taste that some ppl (like me) absolutely hate.

Thanks, Toker. I think I’ll hold off on them for now but if I decide to try, I’ll go with singles.

Same. I've thankfully only tried one or three but it was enough to let me know they're not for me.

Jeebs there’s a single lfd double Claro in the box I sent. Try it first. If you like it try illusione candelas they’re also very good.

First cigar I ever had was a Garcia Y Vega tubo which had a candela wrapper and binder. Very strong candela taste. That cigar, because it was cheap and had a heavy Candela taste turned me off to cigars. It was over a decade before I tried another cigar, thankfully a connecticut,
and found that I liked cigars, just not candelas. If it wouldn't have been for that nasty azz Garcia Vega I could've been enjoying cigars much sooner.

We used to keep a box of Dutch master honey candela around. Take the lead off. Refill. Then put the leaf back on. Ya know. Lotta fun back in those days. My buddy lived with his mom. Anything went around there. We had people stop by the crib just to have one rolled up. I was master torcedor. We smoked a lot of lancero shaped things back then. And drank a lot. I don’t regret it

Thanks, Jake! Yet another NH I can check off. I’ll be a Jake trained OT by the time I get through these crates of stogies you’re shipping to me.
