Meet the pocket rocket of premium cigars - PDR A Flores 1975 Gran Reserva Sungrown Purito. This 4x34 mini corona packs serious flavor into its compact frame, presented in convenient 5-count tins that retail around $25.68 per tin. The sun-grown Ecuadorian Habano wrapper glistens with oily sheen, hugging Dominican Olor binder and a mix of Dominican/Nicaraguan fillers. Perfect when you need a 30-minute smoke break without compromising complexity.
Pre-light taste reveals damp earth and raisin sweetness. The tight roll requires a proper punch cut - go shallow to maintain draw resistance.
Initial pepper spice fades quickly into creamy cashew notes. Expect thick smoke output despite small ring gauge. Watch for uneven burn that self-corrects after 5 minutes.
Dominican twang emerges alongside molasses sweetness. Retrohale brings out baking spices - specifically nutmeg and cardamom. Ash holds firm in 1" segments.
Strength kicks up with espresso bitterness balancing the sweetness. Mineral notes appear in last inch. Ditch before nub to avoid tar buildup common in small vitolas.
These benefit from 6+ months humidor time. The 2015-release Sungrown blend shows more cedar characteristics when fresh, developing caramelized sugar notes after 12 months. Avoid over-humidifying - keep at 65% RH to prevent tight draws.
