Today we will be reviewing the Illusione Allegria, a brand which has quite a backstory and history. The original OneOff brand was started by Andrea Molinari 2001. In addition to the cigar brand, he also owned a La Casa del Habano retail shop, the Cigair lounge and restaurant, and Lauda Air S.p.A., an Italian airline. Molinari set out to have OneOff rolled in Cuba, but had to pivot after realizing that could not happen. He eventually connected with the Plasencia family and their Segovia Cigars S.A. factory, now called Plasencia Cigars S.A., in Nicaragua to make the cigars. Years later, the brand was purchased by Cuban Crafters, a Miami-based retailer who made their version of the cigar for almost a decate. Then, in 2017, Dion Giolito of Illusione bought the brand. The following year, 2018, Illusione released their new vision and blend of the OneOff line having it made at Aganorsa Leaf’s Tabacos Valle de Jalapa S.A. (TABSA) (which is now called Agricola Ganadera Norteña S.A.) factory in Estelí, Nicaragua. That blend used all Nicaraguan tobacco. This cigar was reviewed blind (no bands) by a panel of at least 4 reviewers. They did not know what they were smoking beforehand. The scores are an average of all the reviewers' scores with outliers removed. All of our cigars reviewed are shipped to the panelists with Boveda packs to ensure optimal smoking experience. At the 2021 PCA Trade Show, Giolito started teasing a “sister brand” to OneOff named Allegria, which translated from Italian to “Joy.” As with OneOff, the Allegria brand was created by Molinari, only a few years later and the trademark was included when Giolito purchased the OneOff trademark. The blend for Allegria is also a Nicaraguan puro that uses specific farm lots of corojo 99 and criollo 98 tobaccos and is also rolled at the Agricola Ganadera Norteña S.A. (formerly TABSA) factory. Illusione Allegria comes in five sizes: Robusto (5 x 52), Corona (5 1/8 x 42), Gordo (6 x 56), Lonsdale (6 1/4 x 44), and Churchill (6 3/4 x 48). All come in boxes of 25 and started shipping this past July.

Halfwheel · Nov 27, 2022 · July 2022
Considering the history that binds the OneOff and Allegria brands together, it is natural to want to compare them to each other. With that said, the two cigars are very, very different: while I found the OneOffs that I smoked to be fairly linear, the Allegria’s profile is more complex, with creamy almonds and cinnamon combined with fondant sweetness and some obvious white pepper on the retrohale. The Allegria also has a bit more strength than the OneOff—it hits a point just above the medium mark—while also coming in at a noticeably lower price point. In the end, although the Allegria does not come close to the upper echelon of Illusione blends, it is a very enjoyable cigar at a competitive price point and one that fans of full-flavored profiles that feature a bit of strength at the end will want to try out for themselves.

Developing Palates · Jan 2, 2023 · July 2022
The Illusione Allegria Lonsdale had a nice flavor profile through the first two thirds and then dropped a level in the final third as the balance got off a bit. I think this cigar is a good fit under the OneOff umbrella as I enjoyed it similarly to those releases. This carries a bit of a lower price point than those offerings, and I'd be interested in trying some of the other vitolas in this line. If you're an Illusione fan, I'd suggest giving this one a try.
