I have to say had my first lancero vitola yesterday and was such a lovely cigar to smoke...normally o got for a short smoke... generally 1 hour 1 30 max
The Lancro smoked over 2 hours. Will definitely be looking at more marcas to try out. If not now in the future.
Back from fishing hols & starting to catch up on my unread threads & had a notification for this thread from McDee. Yes, I do favour skinny vitolas, infact I had a RG Slenderellas 1998 on Sat, at 28RG they don't get any skinnier. Still that would come under the unavailable banner Habanos mentioned.
Availabe skinnies:
Cohiba Lanceros: These are one of the best arguably one of the best Havana's & with 10yrs+ hard to beat at all IMHO.
Cohiba CE: just a smalller version of the lanceros, cheaper & quicker to smoke, a personal fav.
ERDM Demi Tasse: the perfect quick coffee smoke, if you discover you enjoy them, buy a box or two.
ERDM Grandee as mentioned previously is worth tracking down, once oyu have PM priviledges.
ERDM Panatela Largos/ Elegentes Just one for the experienced members, exquisite smokes at 20yrs+
Montecristo Especial & No2: These are fine examples of the Monte marca& worth & trying.
PL Panatela: A cheaper Habanos but a very decent smoke.
Trini Fundadores: Elegante & tasty, experinced members know the Gold bands are better but the modern ones are grand smokes too.
Vergerous No1 & No2, Seoane, are basic Cuban smokes, made in the Pinar del Rio.
Enjoy your exploration.

Hi Simon and thanks very much for some stellar suggestions, plenty on my list now for my next purchase. The ERDM demi tasse look like a great 'in between' smoke i shall definitely be buying half a dozen of them. I have sourced them for about 4 quid a pop. ideal! Monte especial and number 2 are top of my list at the moment. Im trying to hold back from anymore purchasing for the next couple of months until i get access to pm's and the sale section. ...hopefully there will be some treats to be had

ERDM Demi Tasse are great, the problem is they age well but never last very long. I have more 2 boxes on the way and one part box in the fridge. Hopefully at least a few will see their 10th birthday but I doubt it.

With Demi Tasse that’s not too bad, let’s just hope Cohiba are not to your taste
Indeed DT's are a decent price, I used to have 7 boxes but down to only 5 now! 2001 x2, 2013 x1, 2015 x2. I was going to smoke all the 2001's before starting on tnhe 0113 but they re just too good & the 2013 are just not going to last long enough to taste how I really prefer then, so I will smoke the 2001 on high days & the 2011 are being burned!
Just had a LGC No4 today, another great smoke & along with the refined No3, although deleted I have an unopened box, which once opened, I'd be willing to share a few, if there is anyone who hasn't tried one before/ long time.
