Given the weather (and lack of places to smoke in D.C. these days), I was thinking about some of those tims of small cigars I see on the site. (I am tired to tossing half smoked sticks away.) I see tins from CAO, Ashton, Bering, and some others. Anyone have some personal favorites? Thanks,

Dude......if you find something lemme know.

I have a short trip to and from work.....about 10 minutes if I drive slow.

Even a petit corona is too long and I end up tossing about half of it.

I have tried the "little" smokes from Fuente, CAO, and even Cuban RYJs.........they ain't bad, but I just don't get the same satisfaction as a bigger smoke.

Right now, I smoke a lot of RP Vintage PCs (seconds). I can get them here in bundles for less than $2 and can get about 3/4 smoked on my short trip.

Macanudo makes several "cafe" cigars (small size). The Ascot, Caviar, and Court. My favorite is the Court tubos. Excellent flavor for a small smoke, and at 4" x 36 ring, just perfect for the "quickie". Don't seem them here very often, but you can get them on CI for less than $2 per stick.

Fire by IT has a Mini-corona that's 4.0" x 40ring. I've only tried it in the maduro wrapper and find jt to be slightly similiar to the 5 Vegas series A Anomaly, just smaller.

Those little Cafe Cremes are pretty tasty but are only a 5 minute smoke, and the little Patagas blacks are very tasty. I thoght the Fuente's and the CAO ANNI EXTREMES were ok too . The EL REY Del Mundo Petites are great and The Montecruz Negro Cubana PC's are qite tasty.

My favorite little smokes are Hoyo de Monterey Excalibur tins, they taste great but they are very quick smokes so you may want something larger. I wish that I could find a normal sized smoke that tastes as good as the minis.

Those Prinicipes are a pretty good, cheap, short smoke and the Cafe Noir from El Rey is very good.

I've really enjoyed the Macanudo Vintage 1997 demi's. Also for something different the Drew Estate C-notes are nice.

Also if you can find them, the Plasencia TKO's are a little but kicker.

And lastly Graycliff Taco's are tasty, albeit a bit on the pricy side, even here.

Ashton esquire maduro is a very tasty 20 minute cigar. Even though it is the most full flavored small cigar I have tasted to date, at $1.30/stick for a Nestor Reserved boxed pressed maduro torpedo, IMHO I would rather taste a fuller flavor for the 20 minutes and toss the rest of the torpedo....the Ashton's are around the same price for each.

The Torano Exodus 1959 tins are very good. Since it is cold in the northeast right now, I use them for a quick smoke. Sometimes I will take a short smoke break at work with them also.
