Best 30 min smoke
 
Been noticing that most of my recent purchases are 1-1.5 hour smokes and need to have some quicker ones on the ready.

suggestions?? I think you can still list cubans on here but not where to get them so if that is possible please include them.

I like any Petite Corona... most good brands have petite corona sizes on some of their sticks. Some of my favorites are the Cohiba Black, CAO MX2, and CAO LX2... These should take you around 45 minutes, maybe shorter.

To clarify for newer members what our "veterans" know, yes. Perfectly acceptable.

Any of the Cuban perlas or minutos fit the bill.
Partagas Shorts
San Cristobal El Principes
Bolivar Corona Juniors
Ramon Allones Small Club Coronas
Cohiba Siglo I

Grab a pack of J.Fuego Origen Originals great little smokes, and cheap enough that you won't feel bad pitching it if you run out of time.

Hm, maybe I lost track of time. I have some in the Humidor, but I haven't smoked one for a while. I'll light it up tomorrow and I'll get back to you hahaha

Reaver2145 02-13-2012 09:08 PM

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 
For cubans

Por Larranaga petite corona
Partagas short
H.Upmann coronas minor
Ramon allones short club corona
Bolivar petite corona
H.Upmann half corona if you want a short harsh revolting wake up call.
RyJ cazadores (i think) along with the cedros de luxe No3

For NCs honestly i find the oliva and AF "don carlos" to do good cigars from what ive tried cant remember there names though.

Indeed they do but your wrong :D

There is no upmann soul in those dog rockets and for the same price i could get a coronas major which is vastly superior.

Thanks for the link :tu I may get some of these.

I also like the

Party short and the short story's and the DPG Firecracker as short smokes.

Ramone Allones Small Club Corona.
It has been listed a couple times, it is one of my top choices!

I ordered some DPG Blues that were extremley small, very tasty but pricey for such small cigars.

El Creditos are cheap little spice bombs!

Dog rockets? Wow.

Like it or not thats totally your opinion, but go easy on the arrogance...especially when your input may be misinformed.

As for the question at hand, can't go wrong with:
Party Shorts
RASCC
PLPC
Boli PC
CAO MX2
CAO LX2

Haven't tried any of the Cohiba (NC) PC/minuto sizes, but have heard a lot of good things!

Good to know the Supreme Expert on Everything has joined the board, I know longer need to have an opinion, I can just follow you around to see what is good. ;) :lr

I will agree that these are not necessarily "Upmannesque" in flavor. But I like lots of Cuban cigars that aren't Upmann, so them not having the distinct Upmann profile isn't a factor in my liking or not liking them. I have probably smoked 5 or 6 in the last couple months, not a "harsh" one in the bunch.

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 
As for NCs, I like El Triunfador #5, it's a PC, too.

ApexAZ 02-14-2012 08:38 AM

Love WOAM. Usually lasts me 45 minutes though.

icehog3 02-14-2012 08:43 AM

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 
Realized I never posted mine...not sure I could (or want to) finish one right at 30 minutes, but for my money it's the RASCC.

When I only have half an hour or so I like to fire up an LFD Digger maduro























that way I have an excuse to extend the smoking session by another 1 1/2 hrs.

I have almost a whole box of LFD A's. Sparking one of them is like getting married to it. I'm pretty sure it takes a week or so to finish one. :D

Everyone has added some great smokes.
I'll add...
Sancho Panza Double Maduro Quixote
Padron 1926 #35 maduros (or nats are good, too.)

Re: Best 30 min smoke
 
Holt's is currently featuring what they calll the Pepin Garcia Short Stack sampler including petite coronas in the 4.5 x 40 range in La Aroma Edicion Especial, Tatuaje Havana VI, Cabaiguan and a house brand, Old Henry.

Here's one no one wants to hear but I am currently very much enjoying the Escudo Cubano 20 Minuto maduro perfecto (4 x 50). A buck and a half each in the bundle, readily available from Thompson Cigar Company. IMO, a terrific quick smoke.

Its a joke people christ i know im a arrogant SOB but really i thought the smily would clear that up.

Either way IMO you got extremely lucky in my books or im just plane unlucky cos the ones i had where getting placed with guantanimos and trinnie short robustos expensive for what they are and overall not worth it ever the major or anything els.

Just lucky i know a midget that smokes to give them too.

I completely forgot about it till i checked a humi but La Aroma De Cuba New Blend Rothschild.

While not exactly a 30 mins smoke more like 45ish but its a damn good (quickish) smoke none the less.

Villiger Export Maduro

Not the best, but those little machine made Villiger Export Maduros are pretty good especially for the price. Plus they're dry cured so you can stash them anywhere for whenever an unexpected smoking opportunity arises.
