Ramón Allones Small Club Coronas
This small corona sits firm beneath a slightly bumpy colorado wrapper, solid to the touch. The cold draw reveals earthy tones with subtle animal richness.
After lighting:
The first third opens with a cocoa-rich atmosphere, carried by thick, well-ventilated smoke—an improvement over previous seasons when sharper notes were present.
The second third increases gently in power. Complex layers of cacao, coffee, warm wood, and underlying animal notes develop with steady combustion.
The final third remains consistent, warming up and losing some roundness as the smoke turns slightly astringent—a familiar and indulgent quirk.
Conclusion from the enthusiast:
Still powerful but less fiery than before, this small corona gordo earns a half-ring upgrade and a “coup de cœur” from our tasting panel, with a very reasonable price.
