Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

Really? Or are you just being funny?
Reason I ask is because I tried all the La Vieja Habanas and "The Early Years" and they were some of the most gawdawful things I've ever smoked.
Especially the La Vieja Naturals. Man, were they horrible.
They were super cheap, borderline free on cbid, that's why I got them all. Even the maduro couldn't redeem the batch. :pu

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

I agree with you Scott. DE really failed IMO with the La Vieja's line. But that's just my two cents.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

No, truly. They changed the blend a few years ago, and those are nothing like the originals, Scott. But back in 2004-2005, I went through several boxes of 40, and they were awesome. If they hadn't changed the blend, regardless of smoking mostly CCs now, I would still be smoking them.

Like Tom, I was a huge fan of the Silencios. You will not find a better example of "they sure don't make 'em like they used to"

That makes a lot more sense. The ones I got were '07-'08.
A visiting buddy of mine loved the nats, so I sent him home with all the nats and corojos. He didn't dig the maduros.
I was baffled that he liked them, but he wasn't a cigar smoker. He sure enjoyed them, though. :)

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

YEP!! They come in a little soft pack like backwoods. Hella good. Too bad NO ONE around me carries them anymore.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

For short smokes, I'm a fan of the RASCC, Trini Reyes and Party Shorts. :tu

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

Mentioned once, but my current fav is the Cabaiguan petite.

The CAO La Traviata petites are worth a try.

For something with more power 601 Red Guapitos, CAO MX2 and LX2.

Padron 1926 No. 35..... It was named the 35 because the Padrons smoked it in 35 mins!

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

The best is likely the one that lasts 30 minutes. Find that cigar and you have that one solved.

FOR ME...it's the Bolivar Coronas Junior.

Not when you are NEW it doesn't....always. Most people see a new person and watch their behavior for
a few months, I know I do. You might be under the threshold for newbie humor....smilie :)

Might have been someone that had a negative reaction to your star wars thread.
This might have just added to it.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

The Star Wars thread in Entertainment is AMAZING! The girlfriend and I are total Sci Fi geeks and love that thread.

Are you suggesting there is ANOTHER star wars thread? :D

Siglo I; Party short; El Credito Perrito; Cuaba Divinos; Padron Londres.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

I totally forgot about Cuaba Divinos. What an excellent little smoke. NUM!!! :dr

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

I really enjoyed them ROTT but have had some sitting for 7 or 8 months now and was very suprised how much better they have become. Very creamy.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

Robusto and finish it in the truck on the way.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

When I smoked cigarettes, sometimes I'd smoke a Djarum clove. I would never want that flavor in a cigar, though.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

These are great!

I like the Nestor Coffee Break Oscuro as well for a little smoke.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 

Maybe I missed it, but I'm surprised I didn't see any mention of J. Fuego's 'original' size cigars. They're all good, but I put them in this order:

Origin
Gran Reserva Corojo #1
Sangre de Toro
