As the name attests, the Corona Junior is still too raw to be thoroughly enjoyed by smokers alike. There was a pungent strength detected from the smoke especially on the second half, where a tea taste immediately took hold of smokers down the nub. Still, the aggressive profile hides the fact that the flavors have not meshed very well and needs more time in the humidor before cigar enthusiasts enjoy the Corona Junior to its fullest.

Although first impressions last, it's not going to hurt to give the Corona Junior another try. The initial puffs of the smoke reveal the raw flavors still trying to mesh and season within. Not to mention, technical problems with the cigar (construction, burn) can frustrate the smoker and destroy the entire experience. However, as the burn progressed, the medium-bodied profile exploded with pleasantries and greatness of its understated spices. In essence, the flaws of the Corona Junior allows people to see the beauty contained within.

Love this one.  A spicy, spunky stick that packs a big punch for its 30-minute size.  Big swinging flavor.

This is a great cigar! Good construction and a good and even burn al the way to the last inch. Awesome full flavor that you can really taste with every draw. Good strong herbal taste with some peppery notes. It's a little pricey and for 7 bucks I wish they made it a couple of inches longer. I would like to have a few more minutes to enjoy this tasty cigar.

The Corona Junior shows that one must never judge the smoke after the first few puffs. The raw and unseasoned taste that defined the first part of the stick suddenly turned for the better to become one of the best-tasting stick among its class. This pepper-laden smoke is a great quick stick due to its petite size. With the rich spicy flavor and excellent construction, the Corona Junior is pure class.
