The La Aurora facility in the Dominican Republic produces the mellow, fragrant, and vanilla-flavored Leon Jimenes Petit Corona Blond cigar. It is a great option for novices or those looking for a sweet, relaxing smoke because of its well-known creamy sweetness.

First Third: A base of light cedar and a clean, fresh hay flavour from the Connecticut wrapper counterbalance the immediate notes of sweet vanilla and creamy butter.

Middle Third: A hint of toasted nuts (almond, for example) and a little stronger milk coffee or caramel note are introduced by the vanilla flavour, which blends seamlessly with the natural tobacco.

The final third has a smooth, clean aftertaste, with a hint of white pepper spice and earthier tobacco tones emerging from the vanilla, which is still there but a little muted.
