A nice 20 - 30 minute smoke

[njstone]

It takes me roughly 25 to 30 minutes to go to work and come home everyday and was looking for some recomendations for an inexpensive quick smoke. I liked the La Vieja Habana Early Years Silencio but cannot find them anywhere so looking for alternatives.

Thanks.

The LVH "Leather Patch" series comes in a very small size (I have a few if you would like to try them).

I REALLY recommend the 601 Red "Guapito," it's really tiny but has big flavor! The CAOs that come in tins are great too (Maduro and Cameroon are tiny cigarillos, the Brazilia/Italia/MX2 are a little bigger).

I agree on the DPG Firecrackers, Oliva Special G (had one last night).

Thanks NJ for the offer but I prefer the Early Years and was not very fond of the "Leather Patch". I wish Drew would release some more Silencios as I would definitely stock up for the winter but it doesn't seem likely. I will probably seek out the Oliva Special G as I have had other Oliva's and have liked them.

Thanks all for the input and after the holidays will probably hit a b&m and buy some of the cigars suggested and give them a try.

Arturo Fuente short story is my strong recommendation. Maybe Cohiba minis.

 

[28Gauge]

Tat Angeles is my favorite short stick.

Short Story
WOAM
Tat Petite Reserva

Those are going to be your best bets

~brooks

I agree withe tat reserva, Im so glad I got a box before they were gone, I really hope Pete makes this one and the Noella a once a year thing.

I must be pokey, the WOAM takes me almost an hour and a half.... Not a short smoke.


Oliva special G Maduro ( I like the camaroon too)
CAO Criollo Pampas (the original 2003 release are sublime if you can find them, the rest are good)
AF H Short Story (the first cigar that made me say 'wow')
La Requiza #5 (just about as good as it gets IMO)
