RAMON ALLONES
Ramon Allones is one of the big names in the history of Habanos. Founded in 1837, it is one of the oldest brands still in production.
A Galician by birth Ramon Allones was the first cigar manufacturer to pack his Habanos in boxes decorated with labels and stamped with his brand's emblem. He was the pioneer of the packaging tradition that we know today.
All the sizes are filled with a blend of filler and binder tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo zone, characterised by their intense and complex taste. Amongst the best known sizes are the Gigantes and the Specially Selected.
The whole range is composed of ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade cigars.
GIGANTES
An exceptional Double Corona with all the depth of flavour that Ramon Allones always promises. Its full potential is revealed steadily during the hour or more it takes to smoke.
Despite the brand of Ramon being a full flavour and full strength cigar, the Gigantes of recent production is somewhat lighter in strength and flavour that one would expect. Nonetheless this is still a complex Havana with a light floral aroma and a fairly easy draw. A good day time Double Corona.

92 / 100
"Long and softly box-pressed, this double corona shows a wheaty quality that picks up more pronounced notes of vanilla and almond. The draw is a bit firm, but the combustion is even and slow..."
