Favorite small cigars, something that fits into that 20 minute drive home, a 'tweener that's worth smoking. I'm open for all suggestions. Thanks!

I'm interested in this as well. I've got a 45 minute drive home...today I'm taking along a 5Vegas A that Bob included in his bomb earlier this week which I'm looking forward to. It's a smaller cigar, maybe 32 ring gauge or so? Should be about perfect for my drive home.

CAO makes CX2 and MX2 daggers. They come 4 x 38 and 5 to a tin for under $10.

I saw in the "shop" last night a shrunken down version of the AB Maxx. Looked like a 4 X 40ish.

I have smoked my fair share of Punch London Clubs. Quite tasty for a small smoke

I'll second the Punch London Clubs, and at less than $30/box you can't go wrong.

This morning I had a CAO Brazilia Piranha, they are 4.5" X 46 and they are quite tasty for a half-hour smoke! The draw on my batch of them is pretty tight, but my humidity has been running higher than I like it lately so that's probably making them just a bit more tight than usual.

A lot of people rave about the Diablo Picantes, so there's another short smoke you might want to look into. I've had 3-4 of them and I never really liked them though... I guess I'm the odd-ball.

If I go for a shorter smoke, these are my go-to so far. Very tasty! I'm also exploring the smaller, shorter cigars so I'm glad you posted this question.

Thanks guys. On paper the CAO MX2 Daggers sound like a good one. How about the CAO Petite Maduro's.... anyone?

And the little AB 4x40 sounds very interesting.........

Wasn't really a fan of minis until I picked up a Montecristo mini/club humidor (25 minis and 25 clubs). Now I'm on the prowl for more minis as well. Nothing like a 15 minute smoke for a dog walk or quick drive

Those are excellent cigars, one of the best.

I agree about the london clubs as well, a darn good hearty smoke for the price. When I first started smoking, I had a ton of those, as well as the after dinner maduros.

the only ones on my list are capones. the only handmades i get down on are robustos at the smallest. i might pick up a few of the ones mentioned here to see what they are all about, i do love trying new smokes.

now that i think about it, a gas station around here has these ones, casino gold they are called. about 4.5-5x32. they come in these glass tubes and they are handmade. not too bad for somethin like 2 bucks. they are always a little too moist though so i leave em out for a few hours before i smoke and its always fine, no wrinkling by the coal
