Cigar Aficionado Top 25 Cigars of 2022 - #21

Tasting Notes:

92/100
- Cigar Aficionado

"Unlike the original Allegria, which was milder than OneOff, these Allegrias are stronger, but quite complex with a palate ranging from almond, tangy wood and licorice to orange peel and salted pecan. The strong finish of espresso and sambuca is long and resonant. That peace symbol on the band references the OneOff line."

More about the cigar:

Illusione Allegria is the sister brand to the Illusione Oneoff line. The Illusione Allegria blend exhibits an abundance of true Nicaraguan tobacco essence with interesting notes of fennel, star of anise that comes from the Viso corojo 2006 used in the blend. The Illusione Allegria marks the first time Illusione cigars and owner Dion Giolito has incorporated this tobacco into one of their creations, showcasing Dion’s outstanding skill in blending to achieve interesting, unique and flavorful cigars. The cigars are made in Nicaragua using the finest of Aganorsa Leaf tobaccos in this full-bodied blend.
