Cigarillos???

R_M_G

Okay, lately I haven't had a lick of time to just relax with a smoke... I know, it's tragic. I have discovered that I can usually pull out 20 minutes to sit down with some sort of cigarillo and relax a bit, but I'm having a hard time finding something I like... I've tried little cigarillos by Don Lino and Macanudo Ascots, the Macanudos were more like a typical cigar but those don lino things were so short and thin that the smoke was way hot and almost sour... Anyone know of a good cigarillo? Something that won't take an hour to smoke or that I won't feel bad for snuffing out early?

I like Cinco Vegas "Gold Nuggets" for a short smoke. They are the most flavorful of the Golds and are only about $40 for a box of 30.

I had a to vintage 92 junior the other day and it burned extremely hot. Any tips or suggestions on smokin these? Do you smoke them like you would a full size cigar? I think that makes since..

Onyx Impulse. They come 10 to a tin and they are a pretty good smoke.

Ashton senoritas are excellent.

Oliva and RyJ both make tins as well I believe? I know Oliva does, as I smoke them. Oliva Serie O Habano petit corona are good, and about $7 for 5.

Wow I got a tin of the Oliva Serie O a few weeks ago and it cost me $16 at my local B&M. Looks like you got yourself a good deal there.

I second that. I had a H. Upmann Petit Corona a few weeks ago. Not bad for a quickie.

Don Pepin Garcia Blue (Original) Demi Tasse - 4.5 x 32 - are advertised as a petite corona, but they're really a cigarillo in my book. I like em for a quickie smoke, although the ring guage is a little too small to get lots of smoke. If you're used to smoking cigarillos anyway, I'd give them a try.

I've had the petite Tatuajes and they taste fantastic. I smoke slow so I made it last about 30-40 minutes, but this should fit your 20 minute timeline.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I've got a good list to start smoking through! Thanks again!

Someone else mentioned the Onyx Impulses, I second those. Very flavorful smoke for the size. Also check out CAO MX2 Daggers, you'll be amazed at how good they are.

Conclusion reached thus far: Cigarillos suck. "small cigars" are the way to go! I got a tin of H. Upmann Aperitifs and a tin of Cohiba Pequenos and both were freakin amazing compared to those limp little cigarillo things! Along with those I got some Tatiana flavored cigarillos and those things are a joke, to hot and sour to smoke, they're much better if you just suck on them! I would also like to hear some feedback about the Davidoff miniatures... I would really like to try them but $12 a pop is pretty steep for a 20 minute smoke! Cigars aren't the only things in life that costs money!!

The Davidovs should last a lot longer than 20 minutes. Any of the cigarillos I've had are a solid 45 minutes or more if you smoke it right. If you're burning through a 3.5 inch or 4 inch cigar that quickly with that small a ring gauge, you'll make it taste disgusting.
