I heard that too. It got in along with the beer chug mile. It's sponsored by PBR.

Partagas Black Label: strong, smooth cigar. I am not good at descriptions, but I think it compares favorably with a standard variety Fuente or Padron.

The small PBL (pronto) is the only small cigar I've had that smoked like a full size.

I walk at about 4 mph and usually do 2-3 miles now that my knee won't allow any running anymore. Personally, I can't imagine smoking a cigar and enjoying it at anything faster than a stroll.

I did once won a bet by smoking a CAO Brazilia while doing a 5 mile training run with a friend but it sure was not enjoyable.

Keep in mind that, at my more "seasoned" age, a "power walk" ain't what a 20 year old would do. That being said I do get a good workout and still enjoy a cigar along the way that I don't have to mess with or worry about if neglected on the uphill push or pufffed on heavily in a strong breeze! That's why I like that RP Cameroon 2003 since the thing just burns perfect without me needing to do anything. Some good suggestions in this thread as well that I intend to try. That Partagas Black sounds interesting and I already enjoy several Punch's that will see if they stand up to a walk. (except for the Bareknuckle. Worst web-hyped cigar, other than a Gurkha, I have ever had).

For nice strolls I will enjoy something that might need more attention or care and something I will savor while enjoying the scenery and would not need to be as strong to enjoy.

Headed to a nearby, low-end, B&M to overpay for a Partagas Black that drnos suggested above to give it a try.

The only size they had was a 60 ringer. That is larger than I usually smoke and really to big for my power-walk. But picked it up anyway and took it on a nice long normal walk.

The first thing I noticed was that the cigar was very squishy. Not tightly packed at all. Lit easily but burned uneven almost from the start. Touching up failed to solve the burn. About an inch in, I could see the reason for the burn. There was a tubular void in the cigar on one side of the filler near the binder. It was like the tobacco there had been wrapped around a thin straw that was then removed. No way it was going to burn properly with that.

But, my the flavor! Strong, rich, toasty. Also right from the start, a salty-spicey taste that overlayed the strength underneath. Senior Nicc really came through as well. Not an empty-stomach smoke.

Have ordered a few from a certain web-page in smaller ring sizes that, hopefully, won't have the rolling flaw this one had and will be better for walking.

I love cigars and I love cardiovascular exercise but together they sound awful.

I have an hour long ride home and two of my favorite cigars for the ride are 1) foundry Chillin Moose 6 x60 2) Schizo Maduro 6 x 60 for a cheap cigar they burn well for me 95 percent of the time and both have flavor that I enjoy.

For a walk what about something like a Montesino or Baccarat? if you like milder smokes.

For fuller bodied you could go with La Finca or Punch. Good cigars with prices that are low enough

If your exercise allows you the lung capacity to smoke.. you maybe need to up the intensity.
