HISTORY
Ramón Allones is one of the big names in the long history of Havanas. Founded in 1837, it is also one of the oldest brands still in production.
A Galician by birth, Ramón Allones was the first cigar manufacturer to pack his cigars in boxes decorated with labels and stamped with his brand’s emblem. He was the pioneer of the packaging tradition that we know today.
Hunters & Frankau owned the Ramón Allones factory in Havana and the worldwide rights between 1911 and 1927. Perhaps one of the reasons it has long been a much-loved brand in the UK.
All the cigars are filled with a blend of filler and binder tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo zone, characterised by their intense and complex taste.
The whole range is composed of ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade cigars.
A substantially small cigar that delivers much more flavour and aroma than its diminutive dimensions might suggest.
TASTING NOTES
This compact, full-strength cigar delivers notes of dark roasted coffee, leather, and black pepper, with a lingering creaminess on the finish.
Its intense, short flavour is perfectly paired with a strong Espresso or a short pour of a spicy Rye Whiskey.
