Mild to Medium Small Smokes

dwoodward · 09-08-2011, 05:02 PM

Fishing trip coming up here in a week. My dad is out of small smokes and looking to make a purchase at CI tonight to have them here in time for the trip. He really liked the CAO Gold Karats and Cohiba Pequenos we ordered last time, however he wants to try something new. Whats some idea's on a Mild to Medium cigar that can be ordered from CI?

I should have clarified, by small I meant Petite Corona size... and my dad is cheap.

when you say small, do you mean small in size or small as in a short smoke?

Depends on your tastes. Some of my favorite milds come to mind:

El Triunfador
Casa Royal
Cabaiguan
Old Henry Gold label

Can you tell I like Pepin? Cool thing about smaller smokes like coronas or smaller, is that they tend to not pack as much of a punch due to the amount of tobacco. CAO Gold is one of my icebreaker favorites. Haven't had one in ages.

DPG has a petite corona.

Could check these out...I've heard about them but never smoked one. I used to have a Villiger 1888 but I gave it to someone instead of smoking it.

CAO Piranha or if you have access to the IOS....the Ramon Allones Petit Corona is very, very tasty.

Another vote for the A.F. short story.

Fuente Short Story, i prefer the maduro wrapper but overall a good cigar

kaisersozei · 10-13-2011, 12:14 PM

Using the "short, mild & cheap" selection criteria, I would recommend

Macanudo Gold Label or Cafe
Helix Remix (note: infused)
Hoyo Excalibur (either the cigarillos that are listed, or the #5s)

I like the ERDM cafe au lait's and the cafe noir's
They are great quick sticks I keep on hand @ work.
