Unveiled at a world-exclusive event in Basel, Switzerland in early 2025, the Ramón Allones Absolutos Edición Limitada 2024 marks the fourth special edition in the brand's history and the debut of a completely new vitola within the Habanos portfolio: the Nuevos, measuring 156mm at 49 ring gauge. It arrives in boxes of 20 from leaf aged a minimum of two years.
What it tastes like
The Absolutos is a medium-to-full-bodied cigar that begins with an unusual opening note — a creamy sweetness underscored by subtle berry nuances, uncommon in the Ramón Allones range and immediately intriguing. As the cigar progresses, the profile shifts toward the brand's more familiar register: rich leather, aged wood, roasted coffee, and dark cacao layer up in waves, underpinned throughout by a measured spice and light peppercorn. The overall impression is refined, harmonious, and decidedly complex — this is not a blunt instrument but a carefully constructed full-strength experience.
A new vitola in the Habanos world
The Nuevos format had not previously appeared anywhere in the Habanos catalog before the Absolutos, making this a historically significant release for collectors and brand historians alike. At 6⅛ × 49 it falls between a Grand Corona and a Double Corona — longer and more elegant than the Specially Selected, yet more focused than the sweeping Gigantes.
