Ramon Allones Edicion Limitada 2015 Club Allones
Cigar:
Ramon Allones Edicion Limitada 2015 Club Allones Specifications: Year of Manufacture/Box Codes: 2015 Country of Origin: Cuba Wrapper Color: Colorado Maduro Wrapper type: Cuban Filler: Cuban Binder: Cuban Vitola: Club Allones (5.375x47) Manufacturer/Distributor: Habanos S.A. Factory: Unknown Humidimeter Reading: 63% Environment: Temperature: 30 degrees Humidity: 50% Wind: N/A Setting: My backup spot in the big, indoor smoke room. Paired with: Iced coffee Cigar Aficionado called it "Dark and rustic in appearance, this cigar weaves earthy elements of coffee bean and spice with sweeter intonations of honey and dried fruit." and scored it a 92 Medium textured, irregular, somewhat veiny, dark Colorado maduro wrapper with very visible seams, a medium texture, short cap/head, and a hard bunch. Slightly tight cold draw with no discernable taste. Overall, a somewhat unattractive appearance. So, as you can see i definitely agree with the "dark and rustic appearance " description so far. Lets see, 7 years later, how I describe the rest of the experience and what I score it. Even burn, dark grey, strong ash, flat coal and only a slightly tight draw. Ample smooth, cool smoke, and a very light but fragrant aroma of floral and wood. Generous richness and body, mild strength and perfect balance of generous flavors of earth, wood and floral notes, and a generous finish/aftertaste of the same. Overall of very good character, with a very good score of 91 out of 100. And, as a trial, for the first time, here are my scores for each individual section so you can see where it did well or where it lost points, and how i arrived at the final score that I did. TOTAL SCORES Appearance/Construction___12____ 15 Flavor/Strength___24___25 Burn ___24____25 Aroma__4____5 Smoke ___9___10 Summary___18____20 TOTAL___91___ 100 And, i swear i "borrowed" this point scale below from somewhere, namely Cigar Aficionado, but cant find it anywhere in a really quick search. Suffice to say, I'm 99% sure I didn't create it. I am seriously considering doing some tweaking on it though, we'll see. Any opinions on the scale are very welcome so I can adjust if enough people agree that I should like I'm considering. 100-point scale as follows: 97-100 = Outstanding 93-96 = Great 85-92 = Very Good 78-84= Good 70-77=fair 65-69= Poor 64 and below =Bad I friggin love cigars Last edited by smbauerllc; 12-18-2022 at 04:51 AM. |
