Panatelas

[Krist]

Does anyone smoke Panatelas? I quite fancy giving them a try, partly because I fancy getting a nice little cigarette run off of eBay and it would be much more convenient on a night out if my friends go out for a smoke I can join. Even a junior corona takes far too long to be practical.

I'm not talking about cafe cremes either, I know montecristo and cohiba do them.

I assuming you mean cigarette tin. I doubt a panatelas (Laguito 3) would fit, being too long at 4.5" and having a 36 RG. The Cohiba is Laguito 3 (and expensive and really needs a few years), the PL isn't a true small Panatelas it's a Vegueritos at 5" x 36 RG. The only other Laguito 3 is the Rafael Gonzalez Cigaritos.

For what you want, something for a night out, the Cohiba could work as they come in 5. But, cheaper, smaller and a good smoke the RyJ Petit Julieta (Entractos at 3.9" x 30 RG) also come in 5 pack. Other Entractos are the ERdM Demi Tasse and La Hoyo du Marie, unfortunately these no longer come in 5s.

I think the weakness in your plan is the tin. A small cigar case might be what you really need.

I would also argue, that a cigarette can be smoked pretty quickly, if you don't want to be left outside on your ownsome, a Mini or Club might be better. A Partagas Mini x 10 tin costs around ?6, they're fine, and on a boozy night out with mates, how much attention are you really going to pay a cigar?

I think you've hit the nail on the head after having a browse it does seem like clubs and minis are the better shout, I think I should of named this thread cigarillo rather than panatela. I just fancied something a little nicer than a cafe creme, I might try a few. I usually prefer a larger ring gauge so haven't even thought about the realms of cigarillos or panatelas yet.

Believe me, for what you want the Partagas Mini in a tin are good, quick and convenient.

What I do, is take out a tin and one of these:- http://www.mysmokingshop.co.uk/index...an=291&sec=940

The little Tubitos is cheap and OK. But it's the tube that's really handy, a Cuban Entractos will fit. An Entractos will take me app. 40mins to smoke, but occasionally the tube comes home empty.

That makes so much more sense now you say tin.
The RyJ 5 pack is a ggod shout and one I have used myself a few times on nights out when first making the transition to cigars. I have also used th HUHC 5 Tin which is good. Like stated tho none compare in smoking time to the cig smokers. I have tried mini and club stuff and found it to be terrible tasting. Find it best to just not smoke at all or not go on boozy nights out. Meet people in the afternoon when its still warm enough to have a cigar in the beer garden
