Greetins Briar crew,
I am going to Porland for hopefully a crazy halloween party with my mates.
I am uncertain I want to bother bringing a few pipes and baccy, especially with plane security.
It's going to be cold, I'd like some thin cigars for the evening with friends however.
Haven't smoked a cigar since high school. Don't know jack sprat about them either.
I could order an affordable cutter and a pack to take with me.
Any brand and type you all recommend?
Thanks in advance.

Define "small". Do you mean the cigars sold in tins? There are many choices so let us know what size you are looking for.

Yes probably a sealed tin I can take Papipeguy. I'm assuming the ones pictured McWiggins still require a cutter, yes?
I'll just order a pack online and throw it in my bag (assuming I can bring a guillotine cutter on an airplane).
Any other recommends Papipeguy aside from the ones above?

Dry cured cigars, that I recently tried... no need to worry about them drying out, you can break them in half for a shorter smoke, and you don’t need a cutter... carry matches or a bic, torch lighters are not allowed by TSA. thebriarpatchforum.com/thread/7475/cheroots |

I enjoy Padron corticos a little bigger 35x4 1/2 available in tins and it smokes bigger than it is. Been smoking a few of Liga Undercrown 32x4 available in tins. They make little plastic cigar punches that go on your keyring airport friendly.

Almost all of the major cigar brands offer petit smokes in tins. Hoyo de Monterey and Villiger for example. Psycholime's recommendation of the Padron's is a very good one.

Greetings again everyone,
update: I love the Swamp Thang Sweets, as well as the Drew Estate Baby Janes. Question -- are there any smaller Cigarillos with similar flavor for a quicker smoke on work breaks?
I tried Swisher Sweets but they have a bit of cigarette residue to them.
Advice? Thanks in advance.

The Tatuaje Noella is my favorite cigar regardless of size. 42-5 (Petit Carona). A 45 min to an hour smoke.

Asylum 13 444 nice strong stick with a cup of joe. Well constructed 30 to 45 minute smoke. Cult Blood Red Moon Nicaragua puro long filler from Esteli five in the box of five 42/4.75. A couple of weeks in humidor and you end up with a nice medium earthy peppery 30 minute smoke.

Man O War Puro 42x5.0 Firecracker with pepper, cedar and enough nicotine to kick like a mule. Not for the meek. You get ten to a box and enough raw tobacco to play with for underwhelming pipe blends or just to make the humidor smell good.
