The smallest size of the JFR Connecticut line is shipping to stores.

Today, AGANORSA Leaf began shipping the JFR Connecticut Junior, a 4 1/2 x 46 petite corona size. Like the rest of the line, it uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut-seed shade wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and Nicaraguan fillers. It has an MSRP of $6.25 per cigar and is offered in boxes of 50 cigars.

The regular JFR Corojo line has had this vitola for more than a decade, but AGANORSA Leaf announced it would be adding it to the JFR Connecticut line earlier this year. The Connecticut Junior was shown off to retailers at the 2024 PCA Convention & Trade Show in March and was scheduled to ship to stores in April.
