Ramon Allones Small Club Corona (from 2003)
Cuba
Size: Length 4-3/8 Gauge 42
The construction was very good, firm with no noticeable soft spots.
The wrapper was Medium brown, a little sheen, with minimal veining.
Draw was on the firm side but tolerable with plenty of smoke. The burn was perfect and super straight for the duration.
The first puffs to were sweet nutty and coffee with a woody finish, medium bodied. After the first half inch the profile changed delivering dense flavors of espresso coffee, creamy hazelnut, and a mild spicy leathery in the finish. By the halfway point the cigar was between medium and full in body giving me more of that Rass flavor with each puff.
As it progressed, the initial flavors continued but were joined by subtle hints of floral sweetness and some mint flavors in the finish. I burned this Rass SC down to the nub and enjoyed every coffee and mint filled puff. Man! I just burned a whole box of 2003's and I'm starting on my second box. For the record not a single disappointment in the box. Just a lot of good smokes.
