Default Suggestions for a good cigarello/mini cigar

Hey all, so I am in the market for a good lunchbreak cigarello or mini cigar. Any suggestions you guys have for a reasonably priced, yet tasty mini?

Dang, I was going to suggest the Shorties from Holts, but remembered they don't ship to you.

My "30-minute or less" smoke is usually the Oliva Special G Maduro. The Est. 1844 no. 50 is pretty good also and can be had for <$2 per stick.

AVO makes a pretty descent cigarillo that comes in a tin of 10 I believe. You can get them pretty cheap on the bidding sites.....

I forgot to mention that I am set for <30 minute CC's. Looking to try some NC's in this 30 or less segment. Thanks for the suggestions though.

Well that eliminates the est.1844 I mentioned earlier. They do have the Oliva Special G, though, and for a pretty damned good price.

Coincidentally I just smoked an Oliva G Maduro Robusto, perhaps I will have to check these out. Thanks for the tip

Ok, gotcha.

Padron Corticos maduro
J Fuego Origen Originales (a bit rough out of the gate, but if you can put them down for a few years, they improve greatly)
Perdomo Habano Habanitos tins
VS Triple Corojo Tins (when they first came out they were like a tobacco creampuff, never tried them since though, so no idea what they are like now)

Davidoffs are great and not expensive at all.

A little bigger than the ones that come in tins, but the Tatuaje petite cazadore is a big seller around here...especially in the winter time when going outside to have a smoke gets somewhat less comfy.

Another vote for the Feugo Origen Originals. Good little smoke in a nice package that's easy to carry around.

A third vote for the Fuego Originals. They make various blends in this size.

An option in the cigarillo market is the Arturo Fuente Cubanito's. A fairly mild stick, but a nice quick smoke that can hit the spot.

In addition to many of the ones mentioned already, I enjoy Partagas Puritos, CAO Mx2 Daggers and the Ashton Small Cigar Series that is available in several Cigarillos sizes.
