Rafael Gonzalez Petit Coronas Cigar - Box of 25's

Rafael Gonzalez Petit Corona

Founded in the 1930s, Rafael Gonzalez remains one of the classic Cuban cigar brands appreciated for its gentle, refined profile and rich history. The brand holds a place of prestige, being the first to use the name "Lonsdale" for the 6½ x 42 vitola—named in honor of Lord Lonsdale, a famed English aristocrat and avid cigar lover. That original naming convention has since spread across the cigar world.

A unique characteristic of Rafael Gonzalez cigars is the lid inscription found on every box, written in English. It recommends enjoying the cigars within one month of shipping from Havana—or alternatively, aging them for about a year to enhance their smooth flavor profile. This old-world attention to cigar aging has become a charming hallmark of the brand.

The Petit Corona vitola is handcrafted using tobacco from Cuba’s Vuelta Abajo—the finest tobacco-growing region in the world. This cigar delivers a light-bodied, mellow experience, making it perfect for casual afternoon smokes or for newcomers to the world of Cuban cigars.
