Ramón Allones Especiales Edición Regional Suiza
The Ramón Allones Especiales stands as a distinguished addition to the Regional Edition series, crafted exclusively for the Swiss market. Released in 2011, this limited production cigar represents a collaboration between Habanos S.A. and Swiss cigar distributors, bringing a unique vitola to one of the world's most discerning cigar markets.
A New Vitola for Ramón Allones
The Especiales introduces a previously unavailable size to the Ramón Allones portfolio. While the brand is renowned for its robust, full-flavored offerings, this Regional Edition allowed the marque to explore new dimensions. The cigar bears the factory name "Mágicos," indicating its place within the standardized Habanos size catalog, yet it remains exclusive to this Swiss release.
Construction and Presentation
Each Especiales is entirely handmade by skilled torcedores in Cuba. The cigar features the standard Ramón Allones band (band D) accompanied by a distinctive Regional Edition band denoting "Suiza" — identifying it as Switzerland's exclusive allocation. This dual-banding system has become a hallmark of the Regional Edition program, allowing collectors and enthusiasts to immediately recognize these special releases.
Presentation is equally considered: the cigars arrive in numbered slide-lid boxes containing 25 units. Total production was limited to just 1,200 boxes, making this a genuinely scarce release that has become increasingly sought after by collectors worldwide.

Collectibility and Status
As a Regional Edition, the Especiales occupies a special place in the Ramón Allones timeline. These region-specific releases often feature sizes not found in the brand's regular lineup, and their limited nature ensures they disappear from shelves quickly. The Swiss market has historically received some exceptional Regional Editions across various brands, and this Ramón Allones contribution continues that tradition of excellence.
