Appearance:

The Ramon Allones Nuevo Mundo is the newly released 2017 Regional Edition for Costa Rica, however its vitola is not totally new because another Regional Edition cigar from Ramon Allones was of a Geniales vitola, which is 54 ring gauge by 150mm: the Robusto XXL Belux Regional Edition from 2015. This format is becoming more popular among Habanos cigars, as it also the vitola of the Montecristo Open Eagle and the one of the Diplomaticos Ammunition 2018 Edition Regional Phoenicia. Being the first Regional Edition cigar for Costa Rica, the Nuevo Mundo sports a brand new “Exclusivo Costa Rica” red and silver band in addition to the traditional Ramon Allones band. The cigar itself has quite a rustic appearance giving it an authentic Habanos look but it is not ugly whatsoever. There are a few apparent veins, but nothing to complain really. The wrapper has a nice chocolate brown color.

Smoking Notes:

Before lighting up

At cold, there are some flavors of cedar and flowers coming off the wrappers. From the foot, the same flavors come up, but a bit stronger and with more cream.

Burn/ Draw

The draw on the Nuevo Mundo is good, and the cold draw brings some floral notes and some sweetness, and hints of spices.

Initial third:

The opening of the Ramon Allones Nuevo Mundo offers some interesting flavors at the beginning, such as dry noodles with some sweetness from cookie and some sweet bitterness. It is very promising so far. After a few puffs, the dominant flavors are mostly sweet, cedar, butter and chocolate. The flavors are not overpowerful and the body of the cigar is just over the medium mark. The cigar is burning well, sign of a good construction.

Middle third:

The second third is where the Nuevo Mundo shows its character: the flavors are stronger, at a medium-full body. The dominant flavor is the cedar, there is also a lot of cream, sweet spices and some pepper. Overall, it is very enjoyable while the strength is now over the medium mark.

Final third:

Towards the end of the cigar, the strength continues to increase, towards the medium-full mark, as do the flavor. The cedar is still very present while there is now even more sweetness, almost gumball kind of sweetness. There are also some notes of nuts, vanilla and oak. The cigar is smoking well until the end and can be smoked until the nub.

In conclusion, a very enjoyable Regional Edition from Ramon Allones with a lot of potential.

Smoking time:   1 hour 30 minutes – 2 hours
