Rafael Gonzalez Petit Coronas Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Tuesday 24 February, 2026 by Kuldip

I received this cigar as part of my monthly subscription and had it resting in my humidor for a few months before smoking. I paired it with a pint of Guinness and black.

From the outset, the smoke was quite bitter with a very strong, almost overpowering spiciness. As the cigar progressed, this intensity mellowed and allowed a pleasant sweetness to come through as an underlying note.

The final third became noticeably woody with a return of spice. On a positive note, the ash held well throughout, and the construction was excellent.

Overall, while it was a decent smoke, it wasn’t one of my favourite Cuban cigars.
