Ramón Allones Casino Marks Monaco’s First Ever Cuban Edición Regional Release

Cuban cigar aficionados in the Principality of Monaco are poised to experience something truly special: the launch of the first Cuban Edición Regional cigar created exclusively for Monaco’s market. This marks a historic first for the tiny but passionate Monegasque cigar scene and adds a new milestone to the long tradition of regional Cuban cigar releases.
The new cigar, known as the Ramón Allones Casino Edición Regional Monaco, will soon arrive at select retailers and humidors in the principality. While an exact release date has not yet been confirmed, official statements suggest it is expected to become available within the coming weeks as the initial shipments begin.
An Exclusive Regional Vitola
The Monaco Regional Edition is produced under the Ramón Allones brand — one of Cuba’s oldest cigar marques, established in the mid-19th century and known for rich, bold flavour profiles and craftsmanship rooted in classic Cuban tradition.
The vitola chosen for this special release is a Montesco size, measuring approximately 5 1/8 inches by a 55 ring gauge— a substantial robusto format that’s similar to popular sizes used in other Cuban regional cigars. Boxes will contain 10 cigars each, and production is limited to 6,000 numbered boxes, making this edition both collectible and distinctly rare.
Regional Editions are a celebrated part of the Cuban cigar world. Over the years, select markets — from Europe to Asia and the Americas — have received bespoke releases that reflect local enthusiasm and strong cigar culture. These cigars often feature unique branding and are available exclusively in their designated region, making them prized additions for collectors.
Monaco Meets Cuban Tradition
Monaco’s first Regional Edition comes as a tribute to the principality’s deep appreciation for Cuban cigars and the refined tastes of its local aficionados. The launch underlines how even the smallest markets can have a significant voice within the broader global cigar community — especially when it comes to limited, finely crafted Cuban releases.
Details such as pricing and exact arrival dates have yet to be publicly announced, though some lists indicate a suggested retail of around €65–€70 per cigar for the Monaco boxes, subject to final official pricing and local taxes.
