Need a 30 minute cigar

chaase321 · 11-02-2011, 07:30 PM

Alright everyone, I'm looking for opinions. I am going to give you some details on what I am looking for, and hopefully you all can help me find what I am looking for.

I need something that is going to last me about 30 minutes; I want to be able to smoke at work during my lunch breaks, but I don't want to waste a good cigar by not having enough time.

Ring gauge and length does not matter to me. Wrapper does not either (I like maduros but I have also really enjoyed cameroons too). Also spicy and sweet both work for me, and I think would work for a lunchtime snack.

I would like it to be medium (not mild, and no so full that I have too much of a nic buzz to head back to work).

Price really doesn't matter too much because I will look until I find it on sale.

I'm really trying to find a good everyday short smoke, so there you have it gents...fire away (please)! Thanks!

Tat Verocu's are great small smokes.

I would check your local shop for some tinned smokes like AVO Puritos or Arturo Fuente Cubanitos.

El Triunfador #5 are fantastic quick smokes.

For me they are.

I bet JohnnyKay5 would say these are a 15 minute stick.

Sancho Panza Double Maduro Quixote or Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte Pamplona.
CI says the Extra Fuerte is all strong and ass-kickish. It's hype. Both are very mild on the nicotine and big on flavor. Excellent inexpensive cigars, perfect for your lunch break.

NUB Habano really surprised me for a small stick.

ArgusP2 · 11-02-2011, 08:00 PM

I like the CAO La Traviata Ninfas.

Cabaiguan Petites, Tatuaje Petites & Tatuaje Petite Reservas, Tatuaje Verocu #5, AVO Domaine Puritos, J.Fuego Delirium Minutos, Padron Corticos, Rocky Patel Sun Grown Juniors, CAO LX2 Bam.

Just a few that I have had and enjoyed.

chaase321 · 11-02-2011, 10:02 PM

Thanks everyone...I'll do my research tomorrow during my "lunch break" and see which ones will fit me, then head out for some samples. They look like great sticks though!

DaBear · 11-02-2011, 10:04 PM

No love for the Padron Maduro Corticos? I used those all the time for tailgating last year to keep me from blowing so much on more expensive cigars and to keep me from crushing a good cigar in the pocket.
