Let's talk about this pocket rocket - the Tatuaje Cabaiguan Petite packs a 4½"×32 petite corona shape into boxes of 50, retailing around $169. Wrapped in those creamy Ecuadorian Connecticut leaves everyone's raving about, this little firecracker from Pepin Garcia's Miami factory delivers more flavor than its slender frame suggests. Perfect when you want a quick smoke without compromising on that artisanal vibe.
The cold draw hits with cedar shavings and that classic Pepin white pepper. Once lit, it's all about the contrast - sweet cream from the wrapper wrestling with spicy Nicaraguan core. Surprisingly full smoke output for such a slim vitola.
Dark roast coffee notes emerge, but kept in check by cashew butter smoothness. Watch the burn line - these roll so tight you might need a touch-up. Retrohale brings out cayenne zing that'll wake up your sinuses.
Leather and cocoa powder take over as the nicotine kicks in. No bitterness despite the small ring gauge, though the last inch gets toasty. Clocking in at 35 minutes, it's the ideal length for a caffeine pairing.
The triple cap holds firm - essential given the slim format. Box-pressed cigars maintain structure despite delicate 32 ring gauge. Wrapper shines like a well-oiled baseball mitt, that Ecuador CT magic doing heavy lifting.
Don't let the size fool you. This pocket-sized powerhouse delivers Cuban-esque balance minus the premium price. Perfect for CT wrapper fans who want more oomph than typical mild cigars. Keep a few in your travel case - they pair surprisingly well with espresso martinis.
