Default Looking for a good short smoke

Hey guys, with my current school schedule I don't always have time for a cigar, and I've been thinking about trying to find a decent short smoke for my 30-45 minute commute to and from school. I had a Tatuaje Petite Cazadores a few weeks ago on my way in, it lasted just long enough for my trip. I like the Illusione 68 as well, any other suggestions are much appreciated!

30-45 minutes is perfect time for a robusto for me. Here are some past suggestions that may help:

Tat petite cazadores and illusiones plus small cigar?

Dude... J. Fuego Origen Originals. 5 little perfectos in a paper pack for about 10-bucks online.

Great little cigars, right along the flavor profiles of the ones you listed.

Absolutely agreed. Those ugly little sticks pack a good punch with great earthy flavors. After the success of Origen 5-pack, Fuego released a similar 5'er for his corojo-wrapped cigars for the same price (Fuego Corojo No. 1 Original.) I haven't tried those, but I've read enough positive comments to put them on my to-buy list.

Cabaiguan Petites.

If you want cheap, then go to Famous and look at the Rocky Patel Juniors that are in the 50 count cabinets.

Default Re: Looking for a good short smoke

I know some people here have talked about Robustos, but I don't know how someone can really enjoy a robusto in a 1/2 hour or less without burning through it at an accelerated rate. Don't push yourself to smoke a stick like that in that limited amount of time.

As an example, the Arturo Fuent Rothschild (4.5X5) that I smoked the other day, and really enjoyed, took me about and hour and fifteen minutes.

I would also concur with the following stick as being good choices:
Tatuaje Verocu No. 5
DPG Black Label Perlas
J Fuego Delerium Minutos

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Famous-smoke Final Blend robusto.

I smoked one last night - my new favorite cheap smoke.

Buy whatever size you can find, at $40 a box on the cigarauctioneer you could smoke 1/2 a churchill and toss it when you have it.

Default Re: Looking for a good short smoke

A Robusto is usually at least an hour smoke for me...I'll be picking up a few of the Fuente Short Stories and the DPG black label perlas if I can find them. A friend gave me a black label a few weeks ago and I really enjoyed that blend.

I like the idea of the RASCC, I've only had one RA and it was given to me by a friend, but I think they may be a little hard to come by in Florida...
