It's freezing here in Ohio, and I ain't allowed to smoke in the house. What are your favorite cold weather cigars, something that doesn't take too long to smoke 🙂

Winter is a great time for the minis.

Cohiba Pequenos
Hoyo Demi-Tasse
Padron mini's (I forget the exact name of these)

are my favorites in the true mini size. They all smoke more like a big cigar than you would think is possible.

I've liked anything I've tried by Ashton. I also like the Pico Pyramides. They aren't the greatest, but well worth a go when you need a fast smoke, and not too expensive either.

Clive you sent me some of those Picos, the first one I wasn't too keen on, but the two I had since then have been very tasty, they make a nice smoke while I'm feeding the animals, love that honey scent too 🙂

Tonester its 16 degrees here in nw ohio right now, tonight I smoked a CAO maddie, very tasty with a glass of butterscotch schnapps 🙂 But its too damn cold. Been back inside for an hour and haven't got warmed up yet.

Thanks for the other suggestions folks 🙂

One of my very first cigars was a Macanudo Ascot and I still like them for a quick smoke. Heck, I'd send you some but I smoked them all. 😞 no, wait, make that 🙂

At 26 I smoke outside at 16 it is in the garage. I left for work the other day at 7 degrees with a WC - that's wind chill for you Texans - of -5. I rolled the window half way down and enjoyed a DD Buc torp.

Just giving you a hard time fudge. I work with quite a few guys from Ohio THE OSU my butt. What area you from?

Forget the minis. I change to robustos and make sure that they are reasonable. I.E. Leon Jiminez mad, ERDB robusto oscuro hell even Fuente short short stories or VSG enchantments for a treat. I can hang for 35 Min. Cold is only mind over matter if you don't mind it doesn't matter. LOL

Enough said. I keep a box all year for those quick winter smokes. Look at it all summer, appreciate it 25 times a year.

34 here in NC, so we're not faring better. then again, the wife lets me smoke in my den. 🙂 and yes, you're all invited.

hey, fudge, if you can do so where you live, now's the time to set up a little fire pit (just put some rocks or bricks in a circle), throw some wood on it and drag a lawn chair out by the fire. smoke any damn thing you want then!

btw, if anyone's up to traveling to wilmington, NC for a campfire herf next month, get in touch!

as for smaller cigars, well, i'd suggest a 2-2 fonseca. little bitty cigar that you will not find disappointing in flavor at all. the first 2 fonsecas i smoked were these, and i still prefer them actually.

Tonester remember I'm a Wisconsin boy as well. I get back enough in the winter months to experience smoking in the cold. Now granted I don't have to spend 3 months a year in freezing weather which would get old. You guys also have much less humidity up there which I find to be more defensible. When you got 60% humidity and its 32 degrees out it's butt ass cool. Actually I have a one two cold weather smoking punch. AF short story and a 102 degree hot tub. Works everytime.

Here in Jersey this morning it is presently 1 deg. That is too cold for any cigar. In normal winter temps when it is somewhere near freezing I use the opportunity to burn off my accumulated cheap cigars, not caring if I toss it when it is only partially smoked.

I have an outdoor fireplace. They're everywhere now and pretty cheap. Build a big fire and enjoy a cold night, a real smoke and a good glass of scotch. Hell with the weather.
