Today’s sophisticated treat brought to you by this Epernay La Elegance (Lancero/Panatela) by Illusione Cigars… honey sweetness under earthy notes of coffee and bready tobacco flavors… this was an elegant smoking experience to remember!

I thoroughly enjoyed relaxing with this Epernay La Elegance (Lancero/Panatela) and its elegant and nuanced tobacco flavors… I can’t wait to blaze this again soon.

A bit of elegance in this Nicaraguan Cafe Rosado wrapped Epernay La Elegance (Lancero/Panatela) by Illusione Cigars… Let’s just call it refined goodness!

At the start… the draw is perfect? Thru this smokey cigar, I’m detecting soft honey sweetness under earthy notes of coffee and bready tobacco flavors… With a Wow-Factor on the black pepper spice in the retrohale.

I’m glad I chose to enjoy this in the solitude of the empty cigar lounge I’m sitting now so I don’t have to be polite about “BS” around me and just focus on the smoking experience and tobacco flavors that this Epernay delivers … Let’s enjoy this treat!

At about the halfway point I’m getting more earthy coffee notes with some creaminess that coats my mouth… The retrohale hasn’t let up and is still a full black pepper spice hit although not as zingy and a bit softer and well-rounded.

I really enjoyed today’s quality time with this Epernay La Elegance (Lancero/Panatela) by Illusione Cigars. I can’t wait to smoke it again!

COVID-19 Cigar Walk, Day 142: 1.25-Mile Cigar
It was my first time with this Vitola today and boy was I surprised at how fast this cigar smoked. I was only able to get 1.25-Miles from this cigar today.

These have been resting since March, so we’ll see how they do next time. I have four left from the purchase I made in March.
