About:
Rolled in the Raices Cubanas factory in Honduras out of Nicaraguan tobacco, the Illusion MK Ultra is an amped-up version of the regular Illusione MK. Back in the early days of Illusione, there were two versions of the MK, with the stronger of the two called the MK Ultra. Apparently, brand owner Dion Giolito was not as happy with this version of the MK, but did end up releasing a small number of them in 2008.

The cigar was originally named after an old United Sates military project where soldiers were given LSD to make them more susceptible to subconscious suggestion, and to turn them into a breed of “zombie soldiers.”

In 2011 the MK Ultra was rereleased, and Illusione lovers are sure to enjoy this Illusione on steroids as well.

I really enjoyed the Illusione mj12 that Scott gifted me. I'll have to look for more/different ones to give a try.

I am an Illusione fan and have been since their release... The standard line is a great blend, and I also enjoy the Epernay line

The thing I enjoyed about the MK Ultra was that it had strength and a great flavor profile - it wasn't just all balls and no flavor like a lot of releases are now...
