A compact 4x38 parejo that packs Dominican charm into its slender frame. At $33.75 for a box of 10, the Petit Corona Bee offers wallet-friendly access to La Aurora's century-old rolling tradition. Its Connecticut Shade wrapper glows like antique parchment - smooth, veiny, and just oily enough to promise good combustion. While not groundbreaking, this smoke delivers consistent mild-medium satisfaction perfect for your morning coffee break.
Creamy cedar notes dominate with baking spice undertones. The draw feels slightly tight initially but opens up after half-inch. Thin blue smoke carries hints of cashew butter and damp tea leaves.
Honeyed sweetness emerges alongside white pepper tickle. Burn line stays razor-sharp despite the narrow ring gauge. Retrohale reveals floral whispers - think chamomile rather than bold jasmine.
Toasted almond flavors turn biscuity as the nub warms. Mild tannins develop but never cross into bitterness. Strength remains firmly in breakfast cigar territory, peaking at mild-medium intensity.
