Hey all,

I know that with everything that can happen with work, family, and everything in between nowadays, your schedule can be pretty busy, and it can be rough sometimes to get a full smoke in. I was wondering what short smokes everyone preferred in a pinch.

Personally I like the Macanudo Ascots, which come in a nice looking 10 ct tin. I know that many of you are not very tolerant of Macs, but these little guys have plenty of flavor for its small package. I'd say that they're a 25 minute cigar, at the most.

Anyone else have a favorite?

LFD Ligero Carajos are nice little guys, coming in at 4x30 they pack a nice flavor and a decent kick.

Where do you get those jozer, I can't find them on Ccom. Just PM me.

Also forgot to mention that the CAO Flavours Eileen's Dream in the Petit size is pretty good too if you're into the flavored cigars. They're a bit like Tabak Especial by Drew Estates. I can't vouch for any of the other flavors in the line though.

PM coming bacon. I picked up some on auction for a lot less than what they sell for normally. Quite frankly I think they're overpriced at retail coming in around $5 a pop...I don't know, for a 20 min smoke that seems a bit high. I think I paid like $13 on auction for the box of 6.

I always enjoy the Arturo Fuente Hemmingway Short Story. It's a bit pricey but sure to impress. I was thinking of getting some of the Punch Rothchilds Segundos until I tried one. It was horrible. If I don't like it a second time around then I'll add that to the list of cigars I hate. I certainly enjoy the CAO Flavours tins as well: Moontrance, Vanilla, Gold Honey. My sister gives me these as she's quite the cigar enthusiast as well.

The Arturo Fuente Hemingway Short Story is one of my favorite "short smokes". I recently picked up a pack of Illusione Cuchillos Cubanos 32. I thought they were really good for a small (4 3/4" x 32) mixed filler cigar.

Ditto on the short story's, good cigars and not too much.

FAV. Smokes are in my Profile....Reviews

For a good cheap smoke I go to my local B&M to pick up one of the lighter blends of the smaller form. I can usually get a deal if I buy them in bulk....other than that I haven't really tried anything else because I am on a budget. As soon as I find something a bit more affordable I might pick up 10 or 20 once I figure out that I like them. Part of the reason is I don't like going into that B&M anymore for personal reasons. The other reason is I like trying new things....thinking Ill try the AF Hemingway.

I bought these 4 1/2" Gurkha Master's Select Perfectos and they were alot smaller than I though they would be. I have been smoking these up and not only are the a short smoke but they are great cigars. I do like some of the tins too.

I got them at cost for $69 for a box of 25

I actually had my first CAO MX2 Dagger today, and wow I was impressed. I was expecting a tinned-cigarillo type dealie, but they are really just petit coronas. I think I actually prefer the MX2 in this size to any other I have had it in, excellent flavor. I also really dig the Nording Torpedos, those are very nice 30 minute smokes.

i just had the dagger size mx2 for the first time on wednesday - seriously a really good cigar - lasted me about 45 minutes but i wasn't smoking as fast as i usually do an never had to re-light once - i have some brazilia cariocas to try too

I had a Nica Libre Principe last nite, expected it to be a short smoke but it was a good 45 minutes; a bit longer than I anticipated. Partagas Puritos are my shorter smokes.

If you're into Rocky Patels the Junior line are great short smokes. Cool little tins too.
