Small Cigar recomendations please.

[Son of Cigarsmoke]

Hi guys,
Most of the cigars i tend to smoke are when im out drinking with friends so i tend to prefere the smaller thinner ones. I have tried some Hamlet ones and didnt realy like them and have also tried Monte Cristo Club wich i thought were very good and at the moment i am working my way through a few boxes of Panther Mignon De Luxe cigars wich i enjoy aswell.
Could anyone recomend others that i could try that are a simmilar size?
Thanks!

What sort of length smoke are you looking for?

The Fonseca KDT Cadets are a swift half-hour smoke (just right with a good pint of bitter). They weren't my favourite smoke ever (see here), but they're acceptable enough for down the pub when you don't want something too overpowering.

The El Rey del Mundo Petit Corona is another small cigar which works great with a pint, but this lasts about 45 minutes or so. (See here).

If you want something a bit cheaper, and aren't necessarily after a Cuban, then I'd say that the Dannemann Moods tubos are probably the best continental cigars (beat the pants off Hamlet and Villiger). An ideal sized too. Their Moods Filters are quite good too if you have to time your trips with a cigarette smoker (though they do last a bit longer than a fag). It's my cheap stick of choice when I'm in Europe, very difficult to find over here though. Shoppy link...

Prob a bit pricey but the Cohiba exquisitos are quite nice for a 30min or so smoke, granted I had a sunny day buff while i was smoking but still a nice lil package

ERDM Demi Tasse, Trini Reyes, Por Laranaga PC, Party Serie du Conny #3, San Cristobel El Princpe - all very different sizes, but small(ish), all can be wonderful IMHO

Robusto is right about the RA small club corona.

(In my opinion) you've always got to be careful, when smoking with a pint, not to overpower your drink. Some drinks stand up to some quite intense cigars, lots don't.

I suppose it depends what you're drinking when you're out. If it's lager, don't worry, there's no taste to overpower...

Hi SoC

All cigars previously mentioned by the guys are all great short smokes. However, if you don't fancy any of them, you could always go with a...

Monte No.5
Punch Petit Punch
Partagas Short
H.Upmann Petit Corona
Hdm Le Hoyo du Maire
Cuaba Divinos

If these are all still to big then you could try any of the Cuban minis (not the best things in the world but still way better than a Hamlet, IMO).

Cheers, HabanoSy

Well, I'm looking forward to the Danneman Moods Simon very kindly sent me on our recent deal.

However guys, I have a confession. I LIKE Villager!

The PPP has been flagged for deletion I think...it was one of the very first cigars I ever smoked from a Taste of Cuba sampler from C.Gars.....seems so long ago (he said wistfully )

Yep they certainly have Stevieboy, although I do believe that H&F do have a fair amount of boxes still left in their warehouse...

Shame coz they are a nice little early morning smoke with a good strong coffee.

Better get some ordered...!?!
