 Flavor Profile & Smoking Experience

This petit corona format from Ramón Allones provides a surprisingly rich flavour journey, especially given its size:

• Initial Notes: On cold draw and early light you’ll pick up aromas of cedar/wood, leather, and cocoa.

• Middle Segment: Flavours evolve into roasted nuts, coffee bean, earth and dried fruit, with creamy hints and moderate spice.

• Final Third: Finish tends to show deeper woods, a touch of pepper/spice and a lingering leathery-nutty finish.

• Session Duration: Because of the compact size, expect a shorter session — roughly 30 to 45 minutes, depending on pace and ring gauge.

• Construction & Burn: Generally good draw and burn; some users mention a slightly firm draw early on.

Why Choose the Small Club Coronas

• Compact size but full flavour: A great choice when you don’t want a long session but still want quality and complexity.

• Offers the heritage and character of Ramón Allones — known for bold Cuban flavour.

• Suitable for a mid-morning or after-meal smoke where time is shorter but experience is premium.

• Good value for a handmade Cuban cigar in a smaller format.

 Tips & Considerations

• Because of its smaller size and ring gauge, take moderate, thoughtful draws — avoid rapid puffing to prevent overheating and maintain flavour.

• Storage/humidor conditions matter: As with all Cuban cigars, ensure proper humidity (~65-70%) and temperature (~18-21 °C) for the wrapper & filler to perform.

• If you’re used to large-gauge cigars, the smoke time and body will be lighter/shorter — set expectations accordingly.

• For best results, give the cigar a little resting period if it’s fresh off the box; flavour may integrate and smooth out a bit with age.
