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!

RASCC is killing everything in this size for me right now.

Re: Looking for a good short smoke
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. |

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

Re: Looking for a good short smoke
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.

Tat Petite Cazadores Reserva...of all the small smokes in the cabinet, these are the ones that I keep going back to. Wonderful, spicy, complex....just a great short smoke.

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.

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... |

Re: Looking for a good short smoke
J. Fuego Origen Originals get my vote...small and inexpensive.
