Ramon Allones Specially Selected - NC alternative?

I know better than to tell anyone about 'comparable' cigars. Nearly impossible.

However, I will say that to ME, there are a couple NC's that made me think of RASS while smoking them. First was Pelo de Oro from Felipe Gregorio. I haven't seen these in a couple years, but I used to get them pretty cheap from cbid - pleasant surprise. Another is the La Aurora 107. Don't know about anyone else, but I get a little of the RA twang from the LA 107 robs.
