Nov 9th 2011 - Illusione Holy Lance

Today’s cigar is the Illusione Holy Lance Maduro in a 7.5x40 vitola. Hailing from Nicaragua the Holy Lance features all Nicaraguan tobaccos. Featuring an old world tobacco look with the pig tailed triple cap the Holy Lance Maduro features a dark rich brown wrapper. This medium bodied cigar features notes of black cherry and white pepper that is balanced out with a chocolaty sweetness. I couldn’t find much in history that I could tie into a cigar for today so I picked this as a random pick. The Holy Lance Maduro may not be easy to find as it’s a limited production cigar but if you can find any do yourself a favor and grab a few.
