Favorite Cuban Cigarillos/Small Cigars

[Magnum Dongle]

This might have been asked in the past, but I haven't seen it. What is everyone's go to for small formats? Something that doesn't take a full hour and I need to sit, focus and enjoy. I have some reliable NW cigarillos but my bosses finds Cubans alluring and rare so I wanted to get something we could smoke at work (doesn't need to be 15 minutes just can't be a super long smoke) that still gives a little Cuban taste. I know they would find it really cool and like it! So what's your go to?

Partagas Chicos are tough to beat. The Monte and RyJ Puritos are also good but I think the Chicos are the best. 

The Shorts line are very good but not a great value IMO. 

And I must say I don't think I've ever had a bad Club or Mini. They're not bad for what they are.

My wife likes the Cohiba Clubs.  They pack a punch and tons of flavor.

Hoyo du Depute are a good small smoke.  38 x 4 3/8"

For me the best small cigar is Upmann Epicures. You get a 20+ minutes of great tobacco and you feel like your smoking a cigar.

This is my tier list for cigarillos:

1st: Trinidad Shorts

2: Partagas Sere Puritos

3: Partagas Chicos

4: Cohiba Clubs

 

I’ve also tried R&J Puritos, Montecristo Puritos, Shorts and Mini’s, and Cohiba Shorts. The 4 on my list are ones I’d buy again.
