Partagas short or HU half corona

[Webbo]

As the temperature starts to fall in Eastern Europe so does the time I can spend outside smoking so I need a winter go to. I'm thinking Paryt Short or HUHC. I like cream, coffee and nuts as a profile. Which of these would best fit that or is there another suggestion?

[Cohiba Stevie]

Partagas short all the way.

The half corona is a decent little smoke but the short packs much more flavour.

It's been my winter smoke for the last 4 years. I never be without a box

[TheFullMontecristo]

try the RASCC as well. A flavor packed little smoke.

[Cohiba007]

Both. Back to back.

Partagas short all the way.

For the "cream coffee and nuts" profile requested by the OP? No way. You are confusing "flavor" and "spices/pepper".

Go for the Upmann, it's a must have…

Go for the Upmann Corona Major, it's about the same price as the HC, you get a tube, it's a corona! You won't feel bad about pitching it half way if you've paid the same price as the HC plus if you find yourself with an extra 20 min you can smoke the whole cigar

Sounds like you want Monte PE.

I like the short as opposed to the hc for size reasons but as mentioned earlier the Upmann fits your profile preferences better in my opinion.

x2, although I do love the flavor profile of the Upmanns

cream and nutty flavors. you will have to improvise on the coffee.

I agree with this.

[CaptainQuintero]

I know taste is subjective but people get cream from the perla? It's straight up strong oaky wood to me.

Wood cream and coffee explore HDM

Leather cream and coffee explore upmann

Get boxes of both. HUHC more fits your flavor profile, but the shorts are excellent as well. If you don't get around to smoking them all this season. They age incredibly well.

as stated above, you can't miss on the RASCC. All 3 are in my cold season rotation

[Cohiba007]

Good idea.

Personally I would buy a thermal jacket, pants and a balaclava and sit outside and smoke a proper sized cigar.

However, the upmann fits your flavour preference more than the short.

[Troels]

Upmann for you I think. Me myself, Im more likely to reach for the short. I think of upmann as a summer smoke - like the fuller flavours of partagas and bolivar better in the cold. But that might just be me

Upmann HC. Such a good cigar. I like them more than recent production shorts.

[MattW]

Can't say I've ever had a Party Short... but the H. Upmann Half Corona is a fantastic little cigar that always hits the ground running from the first puff!

The huhc is the profile that fits cream, nuts, etc. The short will have a spice bomb in your mouth which is good but maybe not what you want. I also have to agree with others on the RASCC...they are rocking fresh right now. Great RA profile loads of flavor in a short stick.
