    Why don't you consider buying some good long-filler cigarillos? Try Camacho Machitos, or Padron or Cohiba, they all make nice tasting cigarillos that are not that expensive and are a great 10-15 minute smoke.
    There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.

    I think that's why they have all kinds of sizes, so you can purchase and smoke a cigar suited to the situation

    Thanks for the cigarillos tips. I'm primarily into larger cigars, but you're probably right that smaller cigarillos would be a better option than halving larger cigars....as long as the cost is reasonable.

    Cuban Hoyo De Monterrey has a Petite Robusto... It's nice and short, but BIG. I like it, always have a few in my humi. I am sure there are Domestic equivalents out there.

    Default Quiet C! I am SHOCKED!

    Cut a cigar in half?!

    My God man! Are you insane?!



    When I first started smoking cigars years ago my buddy and I would sometimes split a large cigar. The end which is cut will have wrapper issues but they were usually manageable. Of course the guy that got the cap end was all set.

    I don't do it anymore. Haven't for years.

    Just find a smaller cigar that you enjoy. Save the churchills for relaxing times.

    Most cigarillos come in tins of 6-12 each, and are about $1-$1.50 per stick.

    if you cut a cigar in half you may miss the different flavors a manufacturer may have intended for say the first half or third of a cigar. please dont cut a cigar cause it makes baby jesus cry and for your sake, cause you would be missing out.

    i've had this kind of cigar before, it's just a cheap cigar, I have quite a few, and there would'nt be any flavors i'd be missing out on, I'll probably just continue to throw them out whenever I'm done with them instead of cutting them.
