New extension of the Illusione brand!

Around 6 months back I bought two MJ12's, the silver foil wrapped sticks. When I opened the first a couple of weeks back it was a maduro with the red band. When I talked to the B&M he said the entire box was maduro's. Nice mistake by Illusione, they were great smokes and the box is gone.

The maduro MJ12s are wrapped in gold foil, aren't they?

I tried the maduro, but they don't do it for me. I like the original white labels. Are the Ultras easy to find and different from the maduro? I may have to find a few of those if so.

No it is silver foil and the Ultras were hard to find but I got mine locally at Federal Cigar in plaistow NH you may want to look there. You can buy off there website.
 
Illusione Cruzado Domenicos Extra!

Maduro MJ12s have a black foil wrapper!

Edit to add - The Cruzado Domenicos Extra is a blend of the new Cruzado line and the old, normal Illusione line. If anyone has any of the Illusione Cruzado Domenicos, drop me a line, I would like to try one.
 
I must be imagining a gold paper because I haven't had a Cruzado in quite a while. I remember the MJ12 maduro in black paper now. :/

Maybe you're not imagining the gold foil, maybe it was sitting next to all the rest, because it does exist, you just didn't smoke it!
 
I think that my local B&M had what I think was a no.4? If anyone knows differently let me know but it was boxed pressed and really good! if anyone knows anything more let me know.
