    I believe those are releases from Illusione. They are supposed to be great. I've never had an Illusione

    +1...J. Fuego also has a 7 7 7. Illusione is a great smoke after a little aging.

    Are you referring to the AF Flor Fina 858 and the J. Fuego 777?

    Worth noting that the Flor Fina 8-5-8 doesn't SAY 8-5-8 anywhere on the band, only on the cellophane in gold. Makes me skeptical that what OP saw were 858s and not something like the Illusione ~888~...

    Thanks for the info. I wasn't sure if it had to do with the internal makings of the cigar or just a branding trend to draw attention. Turns out it's the branding or more so the labeling, but you all just helped add more to my ever growing list of things to try and reasons to get a 3rd and 4th job. In fact, we went to a B&M today that is HUGE compared to the other ones in the area (the Wharf) and after leaving, our daughter asked me why I don't just get one of each kind that they have so that I can try them all and so can our friends. I loved the idea. I let her know that that was the best idea ever, but unfortunately we don't have a place to put that many cigars in our house (yet, lol). Oh, there's a daydream for you guys...

    Really? They were great and the guy we talked to was really helpful and didn't try to push the more expensive lighters when I asked about them. I figured they might see a potential sucker or something. I had a list of stuff I wanted to check for and he recommended off it and suggested some other stuff to try too. Maybe we got lucky. It was a younger guy. Oh, and I mentioned reading on the forum and talking to all you BOTL for suggestions, so maybe that helped since I mentioned shopping around online too... Who knows.
