Just to show how different tastes can be, of that list, the only one I found palatable was the Fuente 858 Candela. The Illusione HL Candela lasted less than 2 inches before I pitched the vile (to me) thing.

The one's I've smoked have been VERY mild, hard to see getting a "vile" taste but that's why cigar tastes are always "IMO".

Candela isn't something that I would or do smoke regularly just a good change of pace to me.

Ok, so vile might be a bit of an exaggeration. It was certainly not a pleasant experience.

Kind of like that time you touched me behind the bleachers.

Illusione also makes the 88 in a candela.

I enjoy just about any on the list every once in a while, but to me the Illusione 88 and 888 are the best (didn't care for the HL so much). More $$$ though.

FWIW, I've smoked a few candela's. One was from a small boutique place out of Florida. Can't recall the name. One was an Illusione, but not the HL. Can't remember the others. For the most part I found them leaning towards the sweet side. All in all they were a nice change of pace. I'd smoke them again, just not on a regular basis.

The Illusione and the AB are smokeable, the others not so much.
