Best 20 minute smoke?

[Cigar Hound]

My favorite is the Party Short!

Some good stuff noted above. AF Short Stories and the TPCs listed are tasty.

Also tough to go wrong with the AF Cubanitos or Exquisitos, I think.

snip....RyJ Coronitas en Cedros, H Upmann Coronas Major, RASS, PSD4, SLR A, HdM Coronation, Partagas Short, and hell, even a Opus X #5....snip

Jeez Peat, that line-up is a real Who's Who of premium short smokes!!

...... Also tough to go wrong with the AF Cubanitos or Exquisitos, I think.

Just remember these are "short-filler" smokes. Same Fuente flavor, but I, personally, get tired of spitting out the little bits of tobacco that seem to leak out of these smokes.

 

[tigger]

Good point from the guy from Wichita. But the Cubanitos in particular have a unique flavor that makes a little inconvenience alright with me...

 

[atuck]

Wow, lots of suggestions here. I would say that the Padron 35 is my favorite that would actually fit in that time frame. Some good one that I just found are some tins made by Rocky Patel called Juniors. They are a little bigger than most cigars from tins and are really pretty good. And I usually like anything by Fuente.

Recently I've become quite fond of the ERDM Cafe au Lait. It is an inexpensive smoke and fits very nicely into the 20-30 min. category.

Cohiba Clubs last about 10 min. another smoke i like are the ISOM Monte Puritos (believe they are machine made) at 15 min.

(Trini reyes about 30 min, as is ISOM Cohiba Panatela (a great lil smoke!)

I wont even mention Backwoods Honey (i use to smoke these) as some people may be offended. :laugh:

edit to add: almost forgot one>>>>> Ramone Allone, Club Corona

Definately recomend the Cohiba Panatelas with about 7 years age on them! I was gifted one and I absolutely loved it!

RIghT ON! I can't beleive I fogot to mention this one in my first post. I always have a box of these around. for a buck a stick, the best cigar I know of.

 

[AVB]

Some great choices, I just wait for the drive home and smoke something bigger even if it means having to kickback on the deck for a while after I get home.

 

[slcraiders]

Can't go wrong with the short stories. My favorite 20 minute smoke is a Montecristo #5.

 

[jcruz1027]

Along with the AF Short Story, I would like to throw in the CAO Brazilia Piranha (4.5 x 46) as a nice smoke when you're short on time.

Highly recommend the RD Gomez "Fast Break" Maduro.

3 3/4" x 48 ring and a box of 50 is only around $80.00. Great little smoke! I have about a 30 minute drive to work everyday, and this is my morning drive with a cup of coffee smoke.

Also, have to cast a vote for Fuente's Short Story, although they tend to last a bit longer than 30 minutes.

Another vote

for the "FAST-BREAKS"

Maduros,(and at $1.50 a smoke they're easy on the wallet) I tried the Gran Reserve blend and prefer the Maduros. I haven't tried the Claros, yet...

Another vote for a SS, but if you are looking for something fairly small and quick, I suggest a AF Exquisito maduro (4.5x34) or a Padron Cortico (4x35). The exquisito surprisingly packs quite a bit of flavor in a small stick. They are my wife's goto stick, she adores them.

 

[Maggs44]

PLASENCIA TKO!!! If you can find the little buggers!

RP Sun grown, Petite Corona - Yummy!

I second the TKO. A nice small but full bodied (and spicy) short smoke. Others for me would be PAM Principe, VSG Tres Mystique.

 

[tasman]

I agree with everyone! If I have a little bit more time I sneak a AF Work of Art/ Maduro!

 

[xRanger]

What do you reach for when you've only got half-an-hour?

A pillow :laugh:

A pillow, and my wife!!

The Claros don't stand up to the Maduros, since I prefer the maduros also. But they're a nice smoke IMO.
