This is the perfect cigar for when you’re short on time but don’t want to smoke junk. I grabbed one for a quick break and was surprised by how much flavor it had. It’s not just ‘strong’ for the sake of it; it’s actually really tasty—lots of rich, sweet smoke. It drew easy and put out a lot of smoke for such a little guy. I’m definitely buying a pack of these. When you need a short smoke these aren’t just a cheap quick option, they actually create a worthy cigar moment.

I met Jeremy and team at Destination Herf 2024 in Miami. Such a phenomenal knowledge base in the cigar culture.
He gifted me with one of these as a parting gift and I’ve been hooked ever since.

Love the size of these, and the flavor they pack. Definitely worth a try especially if you are into learning about different types of tobaccos as it’s fillers are all Peruvian!

The Villa Casdagli Petit Exquisitos Peruvita is a great choice for a quick, flavorful smoke. This medium body cigar packs a surprising punch. It hits you with a wave of sweetness balanced by a touch of oak and hints of floral notes. The construction is excellent with a consistent burn.

Been meaning to try these since they came out. These are similar to the size of Cuban short or cigarette. Nice dark wrapper and excellent draw.
Initial puffs are slightly harsh which improve to a nutty tobacco flavor. Minimal finish with the slightest bit of white pepper on the retro. Burn is mighty fast but I can’t expect much more from a 35 rg cigar. A tangy floral note joins the profile at the midway point. It heats up quickly so I slow my pace just at the mid way point (10 minutes in). The profile is interesting and it’s impressive it can somewhat resemble a cigar in this small package. I suspect it would be better if it were 4×40. Fiver worthy for me and a great 20 min smoke if you’re in a crunch for time.

A dense little cigarillo (4×35) that burns beautifully with a sharp burn line and produces a ton of smoke. The flavor profile struck me as mild, but with the flavors very distinct. There was a little white pepper over a base of dark chocolate and some nuts, as well. A very nice 30 minute smoke if you don’t have a lot of time or want something to go with your morning coffee.

I really enjoyed this little cigar! When short on time, these are absolute gems! Both versions (Nicarita/Peruvita) are great short smokes but my palate prefers this version. It’s a bit smoother and a bit more sweetness. Definitely will keep these in my rotation for shorter windows…or even as a fantastic 2nd smoke to end a night

I love Casdagli but the price point is high, so getting a Casdagli for $5 was a no-brainer. When I bought this Peruvita I never thought that this short filler cigar would be so good. It is way better than the H99 Papas Fritas which was my previous favorite small cigar.

Very well balanced with notes of spice and fruit, and a pleasant molasses finish. These will be taking the place of the davidoff primeros in my humidor!

Everything that I’ve smoked from Casdagli has been incredible. This little smoke is much of the same. They just blend and age their selections so well. I’ve come to really appreciate these short smokes because let’s face it… you don’t always have 2-3 hrs for a smoke. From this I’m getting toasted nuts, brown sugar and light roast coffee. I’ve had other smaller cigars from other companies but Casdagli really paid attention to this and you can tell in this exquisite smoke. These are a total value especially for what you are getting. Can’t wait to try the next offering from Casdagli!

Great sandwich filler cigar. Constantly find myself looking for 25-30min cigars that I can stock in the humi and these made the list. Sweet, floral notes all the way through. Burned great and the flavors were enjoyable.
