Ramon Allones Small Club Corona

Cigar Specifications
Tasting Review
The Ramon Allones Small Club Corona opens with a bold medium-to-full-bodied profile, delivering an immediate burst of rich earth, dark cocoa, and roasted coffee accented by a deep molasses sweetness that reflects its classic Cuban character. Early retrohales reveal a lively black pepper spice layered with notes of toasted almond, dried fig, and a hint of baking spice, creating depth and vibrancy from the start. As the cigar progresses into the second third, flavors of charred oak, bittersweet chocolate, and caramelized sugar emerge, with the pepper softening into a smooth, integrated backdrop. In the final third, the profile crescendos with concentrated espresso crema, cocoa ganache, and a trace of anise, finishing long and harmonious with a well-balanced mix of sweetness, spice, and earthiness.
