I have been given a Ramon Allonnes Robusto as a freebee with some smokes. Anyone know what they are like? Reviews suggest somewhere between PGD4 and CoRo. If that's so they could be a good alternative to the more expensive CoRo.

Just smoke the damn thing and find out! Seriously though Tommy everyone's palate is different and so every review is subjective.'Cigars are a hobby, cigarettes an addiction'Comment

IMO RASS are not that great new .... but brilliant after three or four years.If you want to, you can.
And, if you can, you must!Comment

'Between Partagas & Cohiba' Well I had never thought of it like that before. Similar in strenght of flav to the Party's & classica line of Cohibas.
Here's a pic of a couple of RASS that I prepared earlier.Rass.2009.09.19.013.jpg One was from my Cab of 50, the other was a reasonably lightly box pressed example. I smoked one after the other to see if as expected the draw was easier on the cab cigar. Well no surprise it was slightly but it was enough to keep me on the Cab route. It's also said cigars age better in the cabs, I certianly think they look better.
BTW couldn't recommend a better beer to accompany a RASS than a Leffe Bruin.Simon Bolivar: Liberator of Bolivia, Ecuador, Peru & Venezuela.

To me the Ramon Allones Specially Selected as its called is an excellent cigar.. though i have only had a couple from memory. I think I slightly prefer the smaller RASCC though.
Get it smoked and see what you think, a free Cigar always tastes better!

Yeah to a degree I agree with that PeeJay but I was more thinking along the lines of is it good to go now or would it be one that needs a year or two before smoking. As you say smoke it and see.Originally posted by PeeJay View PostComment

What i had, certainly didn't have more than a couple years on them and I enjoyed. TBH I will only worry about age once I get box fulls.Originally posted by tommy View PostLicky Licky before Sticky Sticky. - Puff Scotty 22/03/14

That's true, if I age it for months then smoke it and love it I then have to start again with a box. I'll have it tonight.Originally posted by ValeTudoGuy View PostComment

Will just walk by and concur with the consensus.
Also the non box pressed ones. I do enjoy those more.
But will say that if I didn't absolutely detest the Robusto size, i'd be all on these and the Epicure 2

I really enjoyed the two RASS I had sent to me and will certainly be buying some more in the future.
Regards to leffe bruin, last time I had it I didn't enjoy it but I'll give it another go
