A bit pricier for what they are, T52 and No 9 also come in cigarillo size in tins, but they are about $2.50 apiece in tins and I’m pretty sure they are short filler. Probably rolled with the trimmings from the regular sized cigars. I think DE offers quite a few options in cigarillo size.
I have eyed those mini Swamp Thangs - really enjoyed the full size.

I will definitely vouch for the T52 tin smokes. Short filler or no, they are worth every penny. I was especially harsh on the No 9 going so far as to call them “trash” but they aren’t, they just don’t even compare to the T52s, not even in the same ballpark flavor wise. The Joya Blacks on the other hand, are trash and you’d be better off smoking eleven $1 bills instead of spending them on the Joyas. I don’t know how you feel about fire cured but Parodi Ammezzatis are great dog walkers. Tin cigarillos are also a nice way to get a little sweet flavor action. I won’t really buy Java or Isla Del Sol full size sticks but I don’t mind picking up a tin for when I’m feeling freaky. The only other ones that come to mind are the Mark Twain Novellas and that’s only because CI has them 50 for $40, I’ve had them sitting in my cart forever and just can’t pull the trigger.

Cigarbid has the Mark Twain Cigarillos at $22 with 2 hours left to bid. They're Freefalling to $25ish. Shipping will bump it to near $30.

Not cigarillos, but in the spirit of quick smokes, I'll toss out Nasty Fritas and Dante.
Nasty Fritas is a pyramid shape that gives you the full cigar experience at light up.. Its stupid strong for the size of little cigar.
The Dante comes in a mini size thats meaty and reminds me of Drambuie.
iirc, both can be had in the $4 range?

I always thought the Surrogates Cracker Crumbs were excellent little smokes. I think you can get 5pk tins for less than $15 and they are really enjoyable IMO. I don't know if Cbid carries them or not.

Ever had the L'Atelier Travailleurs? They look to be about the same size, and come in a five pack, and for the same price.

I have not. But the Cracker Crumbs would be hard to beat.

Have you tried one? I like that they require no humidification, you can leave them anywhere glovebox, golf bag, coat pocket
