Being the high-strung individual I am, I've been turning to small cigars (as opposed to smoking half a pack of Kamel Reds in the span of ten minutes) as a calmative... it's working pretty well so far. So far the pepin blue demi-tasse, pepin black perla, sancristobal principe and petite tatuaje have been doing the trick. I noticed these on the New Havana web-site; I like the packaging, price-point and formats... are they any good?

Sam, I've been smoking them since their release I like them and you can't beat the price. The Davidoff Winston Churchill Spitfires are pretty damn good too!

I would say go for the new Petit Cazadores Reserva and the Verocu No 5. They are a 4x40 size...and a pretty good price point.

The chuchillos are pretty damn good for being so cheap. I would definitely try them out if you haven't. Also i would DEFINITELY get the tat petit caz reserva. It's going to be in my lineup for a long time. I will end up smoking one everyday when i get my cab. Also the Petit cabaiguans are awesome too.

Based on all the positive reviews I'm buying my FIRST box purchase blind, and going with the tatuaje petit reservas!

Anyone wanna jump on the blind bandwagon?

The Cuchillos Cubanos are great, imvho. I've had all but the churchill, and they are all good. I've stuck with the "40" and "42"I think, though, as my faves.

The have a very similar profile to the OD Illusione line, but rougher. Being mixed-filler, you want to smoke them slowly as well.

But I find them to be excellent ... in fact, at just over $3 retail price, the only cigars I can think of that are as good are the new Diesel, a well-aged Padron Londres, and a Tatuaje Petite.

[To me, pitting a $3 against a $4.50 stick isn't really fair. Why not go higher and get a PAN '64 Principe then?]
