Cigarillo Recommendations

**Hardheaded** · 03-03-2015, 04:43 PM

I think its about time we got something going for cigarillo sized smokes. There are plenty of short smoke options, but I'm looking for something that fits that 15-30 minute commute. I know that might not be everyones preferred cigar, but sometimes you need something short and quick.

Have any favorites that fit that bill?

I enjoy Nat Sherman .5 Maduros when I have them on hand, but I could use something a bit more affordable.

For cheapies I like Villiger Export Maduros and Parodi Kings. They both run about $1 a piece and are dry cured, so you don't have to worry about humidification. The Parodi's use fire cured tobacco, so if you're not a fan of that, you probably won't like them.

I like the CAO Brazilia Cariocas and RP 1990 Juniors.

I will see if any of those can be had around here and give them a shot.

Maybe I'll throw up some minute man reviews on them to balance out the big ring behemoths i'm stocking up on as well.

Bandidos cheroots from CI aren't bad.

I've sondered about those...the reviews are always good, but haven't jumped on them yet. Are they flavored, or straight tobacco tastes?

It has been a while, but I don't remember them being flavored or infused....just a little sweetness on the end probably from an additive in the "cigar glue" on the wrapper. They are a good buy.

As an added bonus, if you are going for the Clint Eastwood spaghetti western look, then it is a necessary addition.

I bought two fivers of the MUWAT KFC Delfinas for $11.00 a fiver from CI a couple of weeks ago. Nice short (time wise) smoke. I went to order some more as I liked them, but the price doubled from the first ones I bought. Not sure why, but they were a decent two bones smoke. They priced me out of them for what you get. Must have been an unadvertised special when I got them?....
