The Sun Grown series takes the binder and filler tobaccos that built the Arturo Fuente Gran Reserva and finishes them with a darker Ecuadorian sun grown wrapper leaf, marked by the black trim on the band. Hand made in the Dominican Republic from vintage Dominican leaf grown on the same estate as the family's OpusX cigars, each stick arrives wrapped in cedar.

Tasting Notes
Smoking Time (Average): No. 4 45-55 Minutes, Petit Corona 35-45 Minutes
The sun grown wrapper brings a natural sweetness closer to a maduro without the weight. Cabinet spice and freshly cut cedar open the smoke, moving through cinnamon, maple and medium roast coffee, with the cedar sleeve lending a light spice of its own. Medium bodied, rich and balanced, with a long fruity finish.
Choosing Your Size
Both are slim, classic formats carrying the identical blend. The No. 4 is the longer corona at 5 1/2 inches by 40, which lets the cedar and cinnamon develop gradually across the smoke. The Petit Corona is half an inch shorter and slightly narrower at 38, concentrating the same flavours into a tighter, quicker session.
