As a cigar enthusiast, I have tried many different types of cigars, from traditional large ones to the smaller and often overlooked little cigars. While some may dismiss them as inferior or less sophisticated, I have found that there is much to appreciate about these smaller smokes. In this article, I will share my thoughts and experiences with little cigars, exploring their unique qualities and dispelling any misconceptions about them.

First and foremost, it’s important to understand what exactly constitutes a little cigar. Unlike traditional cigars, little cigars are typically shorter in length and have a smaller ring gauge (the diameter of the cigar in 64th of an inch). In the United States, a cigar with a ring gauge of 20 or smaller is considered a little cigar, while in other countries the cutoff may be 21 or 22. While little cigars may vary in size and shape, they are usually closer in size to cigarettes than traditional cigars.

One of the main benefits of little cigars is their affordability. Traditional cigars can be quite expensive, with some high-end brands costing hundreds of dollars for just one cigar. Little cigars, on the other hand, come in at a much more budget-friendly price point. This makes them a great option for those who enjoy smoking cigars but can’t justify the cost of a traditional one on a regular basis.

But don’t let the price fool you – little cigars still offer a great smoking experience. While they may not have the same complexity and depth as their larger counterparts, they can still pack a lot of flavor. This is due in part to the use of premium tobacco in many little cigars. Some of my personal favorites include the ACID Krush Classic and the CAO Brazilia Minis.

Another advantage of little cigars is their convenience. They are perfect for those moments when you want to enjoy a cigar but don’t have the time or privacy for a traditional one. For example, I often bring little cigars with me on camping trips or to outdoor events where smoking is permitted. Their smaller size also makes them easier to carry around, whether in a pocket, purse, or carrying case.

Furthermore, little cigars are a great option for beginner cigar smokers. They offer a more approachable and less intimidating experience as they are smaller in size and often milder in flavor. This can be a great way for someone to dip their toes into the world of cigars without feeling overwhelmed. As they become more comfortable, they may then move on to traditional or larger cigars.

Of course, like any cigar, the enjoyment of little cigars is all about personal preference. While some may prefer the full-bodied and intricate flavors of traditional cigars, others may enjoy the simplicity and ease of little cigars. It’s all about finding what works for you and your taste buds.

Now, I must address a common misconception about little cigars. Some believe that they are simply glorified cigarettes, and therefore, not as “legitimate” as traditional cigars. However, this is simply not true. Little cigars are made with the same premium tobacco as traditional cigars and are crafted with the same level of care and expertise. They also offer a similar smoking experience, with a slower burn and a smoother draw than cigarettes.

In fact, little cigars have been gaining more recognition and respect in recent years. They even have their own category and competitions at cigar festivals and events. This further proves that they should not be disregarded or dismissed as lesser than traditional cigars.

In conclusion, I believe that little cigars have a lot to offer in terms of flavor, affordability, and convenience. They are a great option for both experienced and beginner cigar smokers, and should not be overlooked or underestimated. So, the next time you’re in the mood for a cigar, don’t shy away from trying a little one – you may be pleasantly surprised by what it has to offer. Happy smoking!
