Hunters & Frankau House Reserve Series 1790 Ramon Allones Collection No.2 Humidor

The second Hunters & Frankau House Reserve Series 1790 Humidor is now available in limited quantities and exclusively in the UK. The Series 1790 is the jewel in the crown of Hunters & Frankau’s House Reserve and consists of themed collections curated from some of the rarest and most sought-after Havana cigars within their House Reserve. The first Collection, from 2019, offered ten of every UK Habanos Regional Editions up to and including the 2017 release. This time inspiration has been drawn for the Collection Number Two from of our long-standing shared history with the Ramón Allones brand. A relationship dating back to at least 1911. 

Just  fifty  numbered  pieces  have  been  commissioned  from  Italian  humidor  makers,  DeART  S.r.l.  Each  one  contains  sixty-one  Ramón  Allones  cigars,  made  in  Havana  under  the  authority  of  Habanos  S.A.  and  every  Ramón  Allones  Limited  Edition  and  UK  Regional  Edition  is  included.  This  provides  seven  different  cigars  spanning a period of sixteen years. They are classified as special productions either due to the ageing of the tobacco used in their manufacturing or because they have been produced exclusively for the UK market. For the first time, we are presenting the as yet unreleased Ramón Allones Private Stock 230, a cigar created to commemorate Hunters & Frankau’s 230th Anniversary in 2020. We hope you enjoy this special collection of cigars.

Every year since the end of the last century, we have put aside a few boxes of particularly noteworthy Havana cigars.  Some  succumbed  to  market  demands,  but  others  have  remained  in  our  warehouse  where  they  have  been  allowed  to  age  in  perfect  conditions  of  temperature  and  humidity.  Today  they  comprise  an  exceptional  collection known as Hunters & Frankau’s House Reserve.Starting  in  2019,  small  quantities  of  these  precious  cigars  have  been  released  for  sale  in  Britain.  They  are  presented either in their original boxes under the banner of Aged & Rare, or in specially commissioned humidors or boxes as part of the House Reserve Series 1790. 

All share two aspects of provenance: first, they were made totally by hand in Cuba under the auspices of Habanos S.A.  and  second,  they  have  been  released  from  Hunters  &  Frankau’s  House  Reserve  where  they  have  resided  ever since they first arrived in Britain. In 2022 we introduced a foot band to identify each cigar as part of Hunters & Frankau House Reserve Series 1790 Collection humidor.
