Ramon Allones Specially Selected ALO SEP 16 (PRRRW)

[RDB]

From a PE box. Good appearance, claro colorado with some veins but nothing heavy. Smoked fairly dry and outdoors on a warm night.

Fairly mild start, with a gentle peppery woodiness. I’d never describe this as ‘classic’ RA. However, after an inch or so the raisiny, dried fruit sweetness does arrive. But it’s mild and fragrant rather than rich. Body stays under medium, peppery spice increases slightly... and that’s pretty much where it stays. All ok, but certainly not compelling.
