Ramon Allones Small Club Corona Cigar Review

• Brand: Ramon Allones
• Length: 4 3/8 inches (110 mm)
• Ring Gauge: 42
• Score: Overall rating not clearly stated, appearance 4/5, construction 3.5/5, flavor 4/5, value 4/5

Origin and Basics

The Ramon Allones Small Club Corona Cigar originates from Cuba. It comes in a Petit Corona (Minutos) format, with a size of 110 x 16.67 mm, ring gauge of 42, and weight of 7.46 g. It's hand - made and costs over $5 each.

Appearance

The cigar is box - pressed and has a decent wrapper. However, the band quality is lower than that of Ramon Allones Specially Selected. The band on RASS has an embossed picture, while other Ramon Allones have plain and rather ugly bands.

Construction

On two out of four cigars, the draw was extremely tight, and one had major wrapper problems. The construction was not impressive compared to the Specially Selected.

Flavor

• One third: Initially, the flavors are woody.
• Two thirds: Spicy notes kick in at the half - mark.
• Three thirds: The cigar is almost full - bodied.

Keeping them in the humidor for 6 months may result in a richer bouquet.

Value

If the construction issues are persistent, the cigar is overpriced.

Overall, if you like Ramon Allones Specially Selected, avoid this minuto. For a petit corona, a Monte No. 5 may be a better choice.
