Crafted exclusively for the Dutch market, the Ramón Allones 40 Carat joins the Edición Regional Países Bajos series as a highly distinguished release. This exceptional Cuban cigar made its debut in March 2022, representing a collaborative effort between Habanos S.A. and the Netherlands' appointed distributor. With a total production run limited to 2,020 numbered boxes, this release exemplifies the scarcity and collectibility that defines the Regional Edition program.

The 40 Carat employs the 109 vitola, a format with an interesting history within Cuban cigar production. This particular shape had previously been discontinued from standard manufacturing, making its resurrection for this special release all the more significant for aficionados seeking rare and distinctive smoking experiences.
