About the Ramon Allones Small Club Coronas
Ramon Allones has earned a devoted following since the brand was founded in Cuba back in 1837, and it holds a special place in cigar history as one of the first marques to dress its boxes in the colorful lithographed artwork that became an industry standard. The Small Club Coronas distills that heritage into a compact Petit Corona, known by Habanos under the Minutos vitola. Hand-rolled in Havana and presented in boxes of 25, it offers the brand’s signature bold character in a format you can enjoy in under an hour.
Flavor profile by thirds
The opening third greets you with toasted bread and a tingle of black pepper, kept in balance by a creamy texture and a thread of cedar sweetness. As the smoke settles into the middle, the spice softens while roasted coffee moves to the front, joined by hints of cocoa and the occasional whisper of cherry or almond. The final third builds intensity, layering rich, leathery depth over a coffee-bean finish that confirms why so many smokers treasure this little cigar for its concentrated punch.
Pairings
- A cup of dark espresso or strong black coffee that mirrors the cigar’s roasted core.
- An aged Cuban or Caribbean rum, whose caramel sweetness tempers the pepper.
- A peaty single malt Scotch for those who want smoke against smoke.
Aging and storage
Like most full-flavored Habanos, the Small Club Coronas rewards patience. Keep your cigars resting at roughly 65 to 70 percent relative humidity and around 65 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit inside a seasoned humidor. Given a year or two of slumber, the early peppery edge mellows and the coffee, cocoa, and cedar notes knit together into something rounder and more harmonious. Even fresh from the box, though, this cigar smokes beautifully.
Who it is for
This is a cigar for the smoker who craves big flavor but is short on time. Its modest dimensions make it an ideal morning companion or a between-meetings break, while its full-bodied profile satisfies seasoned palates that have grown tired of milder fare. Newcomers curious about Cuban strength will also find it approachable, since the flavors are vivid and easy to follow rather than overwhelming.

Decent corona but not my favorite from Cuban Cigar. The Ramon Allones Small Club Coronas has good flavor – honey and tobacco – but didn’t wow me like other Cubans I’ve had. Construction was fine, burn was mostly even. It’s good, just not exceptional. Worth trying though.
