Curious on everyone's take on tiny smokes.

Been thinking about buying some tins for quick ride home smokes.

I've had some oliva serie O, RyJs, and rocky patel 92 that was surprising.

I'm eyeing the cohiba pequenos that weigh in at 4 & 3/16 x 36 at famous and just curious if anyone else smokes the mini guys and which ones you like. Thanks

Tatuaje Petite Casadores Reserva. Tatuaje Verocú. Illusions R Rothchilde. Papas Fritas. Are all really good. I haven't had those cohibas but I've heard they are good.

Thanks guys. I love bait fish and papas fritas but pf is a little too big.

I like the cohiba idea since they are small and cheap and if I don't finish I can toss without feeling bad.

I'll check out these other ideas too

Idk if you care or not but stuff like the Cohiba pequenos are machine made, not hand rolled. And I'm not 100% on this but I don't think its long filler either. I know many of the machine rolled cigars aren't. Padron makes smaller sticks like that, they call them Corticos and they are hand made and use long filler. They're not super expensive either and they might be worth a whirl. Or grab both and compare and smoke whatever you like more.

That's great input. I don't necessarily want to smoke to smoke, I still want to enjoy it! I'll dig deeper

Actually famous description says hand rolled and long fillers and Cameroon wrapper.

30 for $52 minus our famous discount! If they're good that's awesome

Ryan,
Over the past 5 years, I've tried several tiny ring gauge short smokes. I've found that I really don't like anything under 40 RG. Anything under that tend to burn really hot, but that could be due to how I smoke. The Bait Fish are my current favorite little guy, but if you're looking for an inexpensive smoke, with good flavor, that you wouldn't mind pitching half way through, look into the Obsidian petite corona. I picked up 50+ of these on the CBid singles auctions for a buck a piece. These are way better then the rest of the Obsidian line.

If you're willing to spend a little more, check out the MOW Puro Authentico. Dynamite little corona, that can be had for $2 each if you're patient.

If you would like to give a couple of these a try, PM me your addy, and I'll send you a package when I'm back in Jersey (about 2 weeks).

I enjoy the above. CAO Brazilia Cariocas or the MX2 tins or the Criollo pampas. All are 4x38 other than that I will have these occasionally. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1393382968.131599.jpg
