Ramón Allones Celestiales Finos- Edición Regional (Asia Pacific) - 2009
Length: 5.4 Inches
Ring: 46
Smoked: 11/5/10
Decided to take out one of my other RE releases from Allones before smoking the Lusitanos that weekend.
It started off nice. Perfect draw, sweet, woody taste with pleasant floral notes.
After the first inch or so, the strength immediately picked up. I was still getting a woody taste, but now I was getting some spice and leather to boot. There was quite a bitter aftertaste coming from this thing as well.
As the smoke progressed, the leather and bitter flavors became more prominent. This is one tannic cigar. I'm hoping this spells good things for the future.
Here's a shot of a slight burn issue I encountered when nearing the end. Nothing new to report in the taste department. The strength kept ramping up, and the leathery, tannic bitterness came with it. This is unlike any Allones cigar I've had to date.
This is about where I ended the smoke. I'm hoping these develop into some fine cigars in the future. I would hate to think I've invested in something that could've gone to something else. These are going in for the long nap.
Thanks for reading!

Cool. As long as the gloves allow you the dexterity to handle the cigar (no mittens, yes?), there shouldn't be any problems. The only warning I'd give is to light the cigar first. Or if you ever need to correct a burn problem, you may want to take the glove off so you don't accidentally singe it.
