Since its launch in 2012, the Rafael González Perlas has carved out a niche in the cigar market with its “small and sophisticated” positioning. The Rafael González Perlas is a “short tasting” model with a cleverly designed size - 102 mm in length with a 40 mm ring gauge, the classic Petit Corona. It is a classic Petit Corona with a ring gauge of 40 mm, which is not so small that the cigar misses out on the flavor profile, but also allows for a more flexible smoking time. Whether it's a moment of relaxation in the morning before starting the day, a short break during lunch, or a quick pick-me-up between business meetings, this small cigar is perfectly suited to allow the cigar smoker to enjoy a complete taste experience without having to set aside a lot of time.

What is even more remarkable is that Rafael Gonzalez Pearls are handmade by experienced cigar rollers. From the selection of the wrapper (high-quality tobacco leaves with uniform color and fine veins are selected to ensure the appearance and combustion stability), to the filling of the filler (tobacco leaves of different years and regions are mixed according to specific ratios, and the looseness and tightness of the filler are controlled by hand compaction to ensure the smooth release of the smoke), and the final rolling (the strength of the filler is controlled by the touch of the hand to avoid the wrapper from being damaged or the body from being deformed), each step of the process is characterized by the dedication and skill of the artisan. Each step of the process is characterized by the dedication and skill of the craftsman. This purely handmade process not only brings a more delicate taste - a more even smoke and a more consistent release of flavor when burning - but also gives each cigar a unique “handmade temperature”, avoiding the standardized coldness of mechanized production, and adding a sense of respect for traditional craftsmanship to the tasting process. A tribute to traditional craftsmanship.
