Product Introduction

The Rafael Gonzalez Petit Piramide Regional Edition Germany was released in 2013. It's a hand - made Cuban cigar with Cuban filler, wrapper, and binder. The Edición Regional program by Habanos S.A. launched in 2005, and Rafael González joined in 2013 with this exclusive for Germany.

Appearance

The light - brown wrapper has some tooth and little oil. The cigar is very hard, which raised concerns about the draw. Rating: 3.5/5

Construction

The draw of the Petit Piramides is tight but acceptable. The burn line is a bit uneven, also acceptable. Rating: 4/5

Flavor

• One third: Initial notes include hay, leather, earth, chocolate, coffee, a hint of orange, lots of creamy vanilla, and a bit of salt and pepper. Strength starts mild.
• Two thirds: Predominantly hay and cream, with a lot of vanilla. Strength gradually increases.
• Three thirds: Existing flavors remain, citrus note (likely lemon) increases, a dash of cinnamon, and plenty of creamy vanilla. Strength reaches medium.

Rating: 3.75/5

Value

Considering it's a regional exclusive, the price of about 10 EUR each is not bad. However, construction issues make the price less justifiable. Rating: 4/5
