I like the way torpedos feel in my mouth (no gay jokes please), but I often don't have the time to enjoy them. That is one of the reasons I smoke the Onyx Reserve Mini-Belicoso. I wish more makers would consider this size/shape. Anyone know of other

"little torpedos".

The padron 6000 I think is a smaller version of a "regular torpedo" (in length not girth). That sound gay too!! Sorry

I just got a few of the La Vieja Habana 'Leather Patch' Belicos Fino cigars in an auction.

They are little torpedos. Not really my cup of tea. LOL!

But they are kind of nice.

I know I'm not gay, I tried a little torpedo once and didn't like it. LMFAO

Several are made.

The Onyx you know.

My favorite is the Bolivar Belicoso Fino ISOM, or BBF.

Sancho Panza makes a petit belicoso, also ISOM.

Right off the top of my head, I can't think of another domestically available Short Belicoso, or torpedo.

Is this a niche that isn't being filled, domestically??

Indian Tabac super fuerte mini-belicoso, and Cupido Criollo makes a small perfecto. Both are very good and can be got here for reasonable $. The Cupido's name I can't recall and I am not sure if they are going to be made any more,so they might be harder to find....Later, Erik

No Homebrew; If this was **** envy; I'd be smoking disproportionally large torpedos and wearing oversized shoes while I drive my porcshe.

I stopped worrying 'bout size once I got married and stopped using it so much.

Thanks all for the suggestions!

Is it me, or did Andy not understand what Homebrew was saying? Or did he know and was just making a joke? I'm confused - R/T " Is this a niche that isn't being filled domestically?" LOL!

LOL,

I believe he missed my meaning. After some further research, digging through my coolers, I found several domestic petit belicosos, so I guess the niche is filled. My favorite being the Bucanero Pegleg.

P.S. Sorry if you were offended by the misinterpretation of my last post. It was not my intention.

Not a mini-belicoso ... but an excellent 'quick smoke' ...

Actually a torpedo but at 4 5/8 it fits the general catagory.

Homebrew,

I've been up for three days straight pumping water out of my basement. My misinterpretation was one of the many brain-farts I've had recently due to lack of sleep. I actually drove past my driveway today too! No offense taken of course. I don't offend easily anyhow.

Gonna sleep now.............right after the game.

Hey Andy,

No prob man. I can identify with the lack of sleep. I used to work a weekend shift with 40 hours in three days. Talk about hallucinations. LOL

Have a great day.
