I don't know why but I have found myself smoking more and more Gordos and Nubs. So I will ask, What's your favorite "Short Cigar". Guidelines are as follows
Has to be 5 inches or smaller and 56 or larger ring gauge.

    I don't smoke them. I have, but have a hard time with smoking half a cigar. LOL!

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    Rarely do I buy anything over 50 ring gauge, but the 5V AAA is one of my go-to's. It's a 5x56 so barely falls within your guidelines.

    Just don't do them on your white fence. Wives don't like the little burn marks.

    I like the Shortys and the 5V Miami Knuckle. I generally don't like 60 rg, but those two are so good that I'll take the discomfort and shame that comes with smoking a 60. Big Smile [:D]

    The Diesel Unholy Cocktail is damn close to being nub-ish, and I love them.

    most of them are not "half a cigar"

    there is enough tobacco in there by weight to make a "full sized" cigar. the larger nubs have burn times over 2 hours. if you look through my blending 101 thread, page two (the post with the diagram and a bit after) there is a discussion about just this concept.

    isnt the AAA considered a robusto?

    Bought a Nub Cameroon from the b&m just because I was interested in the Nub line and it was the only one they had and I thought it was excellent..

    I usually don't smoke rings larger than 52 or so but the 262 Paradigm 4Sixty (4 X 60) is a nice smoke. (that fits your size requirement.)

    I actually have 1 of each, I like the Cain Maduro Nub and the MOW SE Maduro (Red Ribbon).

    Gotta go with Nub on this one. The construction is so perfect that you really can smoke it all the way to your lips. Nub Dub is a new favorite

    Yeah, it is, but i figured it was similar enough and since it is a 5.0" x 56 it barely fits into the category that the op specified.

    The nub dub is the best nub IMO.

    Agreed! Anyone try the new Nub Habano shaped like the Short Story?

    Not a huge NUB fan but I do like the DUB. I've got the new "preferido" vitola but haven't tried it yet.

    I have to agree with KCW, the 262 Paradigm 460 is a really good stick!
