Yeah, what's the poop TJ ? I pulled a @Brimy and sent it on before I've even had one myself but I hear great things..... what say you ?
Farce courtesy of @FireTom Tom this was one excllent cigar my friend. I wasn't really all that excited about the Connecticut version but this one is freaking box worthy. Well done you trouble-maker !

Late, again,posting here. Night time smoke. Mr. Brownstone Smack Maduro by Esteban Carreras. Smoked while strolling on the boardwalk late Tues Night/early Wednesday Morning. After the rain ended, clear sky very fresh moisture laden air...the cigar smoked/tasted better than any of these I've smoked to date. Easy light sharp burn line.... it were a good 'un.
Wednesday Afternoon smoke. A Tabacalera Sumatra Corona, while walking on the beach.
Small package...In the past that would've been Villiger...back when they were Cuban.I think they were No.7s.Haven't smoked any small pack Villigers recently. But if you like the dry cigars they might be worth a try. There was a non Cuban Magicos that was quite nice, not a long cigar, and I cant recall the ring gauge...more importantly cannot remember the brand name...NYTONY...surely would know that Heck TONY is the man with the real skinny on the short smokes. My fav non cubn short cigar was the San Cristobal Del Sol by Pepin Garcia, but they are long gone now. A Fuente Hemingway Short Story...good but too $$ for me. There are a few Cubans, Vegueros. Quinteros and the Romeo y Julieta En Cedros , H. Upmann. That might fit the bill. However not all available in small pkgs.
Sorry, not a helluva lot of help here. Maybe if I luck out and can more than a single brain cell to light up might come up with a better answer.

I was rather skeptical until I was sent one in a package. Maybe not a high rate smoke, but it wasn’t bad. I think a part of it is the stigma. I’ve had those Serie 55 cigarillos and think they are more than worth the price. Not my favorite little smoke, but there’s just not a lot of options that aren’t either really crappy, too expensive for scraps rolled up, or not available as a stand alone tin which is the trouble I’m finding with the Avo Classic Puritos now, which is the best small cigar next to the little Cubans, I’ve had.
*EDIT*
I had a gift card for Leaf Only on my Christmas wish list. I’ve really been thinking I should try rolling my own again but making a mold to create a 45 ring (who doesn’t like a large caliber, errr, ring?) with grooves cut into the bottom half to make them 4”, 5.5”, and the end at 7” so as make whatever length I desire. I’d have this mold counter sunk to use wing nuts to clamp it instead of my little statue to weigh it down. I recently looked at their site but they have no Maduro kits at the moment. I need to find someone with a saw to cut a 2x8 and a drill press to make it properly.
Last night. After removing the cello and leaving these in my wooden humidor for 2 weeks now they smoke great. Still not happy about the size change, but at least I get that norteño flavor again. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...61e828640d.jpg
