Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please
Hi All! Would anyone be able to give me some suggestions on decent cigarillos? Mainly for use when I'm at the bar and my buddies go out for a cigarette or when it's late and I want a fix but don't have an hour plus to sit down. The ACID C-Notes' size worked very well for that "bar cigarette" time frame. So something of that size would be good to have on hand. I just picked up a tin of Rocky Patel 1992 Juniors and I did not care for them. I am not opposed to tins of 5, 8 or 10. Thanks in advance.

I've got a tin of Winston Churchill Spitfires and some CAO LX2 Daggers sitting in the car for a quick smoke. Padron Corticos Maduro are the best bang for the buck IMO. Used to use them for tailgates all the time when I didn't want a full cigar.

Re: Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please
Definitely agree with the Padron Corticos! Some other cigarillo/petit corona sized cigars that I enjoy are the Don Pepin Cuban Classics (petit corona) and Arturo Fuente Exquisitos or Cubanitos. Both are decent, but I definitely think their larger counterparts are of better quality and flavor. Still, not bad for their size.

Re: Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please
Not a tin, but Nestor Miranda Coffee Break is a good smoke. I like the oscuro.
Also not a tin, but J. Fuego Origen originals are pretty damn good for the size. I like smoking them even when I have lots of time.

Re: Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please

Re: Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please
Wasn't even thinking along the PC lines, so I'll add Avo Signature Petit Coronas(for when you want something nice, and also my favorite size of the blend), My Father El Picadors, Oliva V #4s and Hemingway Short Stories.

Re: Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please
I actually didn't mind the CubanPartagas Minis. Though I'm out now. May have to try the CC Cohiba mini's soon.

If you don't mind a sweet tip, the Pirata Pequenos are a nice little rough-rolled 20-30min smoke. Rex Britannia looks to be pretty similar (same tin, same price, same rough roll, lighter wrapper) and I may give them a try next time I order from CI.

Re: Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please
Anything made by Padron WOULD be a good choice. Never had the Corticos, though.
I did not have a bad experience with the Montecristo models I reviewed HERE: http://olscigars.blogspot.com/2010/1...oke-those.html |

Re: Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please
One of my go-to short smokes are the JR Ultimate Habanitos, in maduro. At about $35 for a box of 24, the price is good too.

Re: Small Cigars/Cigarillo Suggestions Please
ive been enjoying LFD corajos in the maduro.
those things are great after a year or so. lasts longer than a cigarette but in the summer you wont be stuck for 2 hours to finish a churchill.
