I always go for the robusto or toro. They always hit the spot. -(P

I really like Lanceros and Robustos. Robustos being more comfortable to hold. Although, I am a complete sucker for torpedos. If there is a blend I want to try that has multiple sizes, I'll almost always go for the torpedos. Don't know why, it just happens that way...

Robusto and Corona mostly for me. Sometimes I'll smoke a Torpedo or Belicoso and rarely a Toro. My least favorite is Lancero/Panatelas. I like to enjoy my smoke not babysit it. 56 is about the biggest ring I'll smoke.

Robusto, coronas and lanceros for me although I haven't smoke much lanceros but I like them... mostly anything less than a 52 rg will do :)

Re: I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you?
 
I'm a smaller-rg smoker myself. 90% of the time I'll always opt for a petit corona or equivalent. Although I love smoking cigars, no matter how much I'm enjoying a stick, after the 1 1/2 hour point I start getting bored or lose interest in it. The fact that the only place I can smoke at my home is outside doesn't help either. Plus petit coronas are typically the cheapest vitola and I can try more new stuff for less. If i'm celebrating or have a lot of time to myself, sometimes I'll venture into corona or robusto land. But churchills, toros, double coronas...eh, not for me.

To that end, I really wonder why the prevailing trend right now seems to be huge rg jawbreakers? The folks at Perdomo seem to be the biggest offenders.

I love me some belicosos/toros...but find myself really enjoying coronas as of late.

Re: I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you?
 
Lanceros, Lonsdales, PC's....anything 38-44 RG. However I will admit I like Piramides as well (PSP2's, Cuabas, Dip 2's :dr) but I cut those at 42-44 RG.

I'd say the Corona falls right in the middle of my preferred range of cigars. 50rg being to about as wide as I like to go, all the way down to 40 or 38. So yeah, the corona is just about average size for me.

Also, I like to keep my smoke sessions under the 1.5 hour mark, otherwise I get bored. On the other hand, if it's gone in less than 45 minutes, I'm usualy left wanting to light another.

Re: I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you?
 
I totally relate to your second comment. If it takes to long I loose interest. It's made to enjoy, if its to long that you have to rush it that's not interesting.
I guess my attention span for smoking has its limits.

Re: I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you?
 
Corona gorda and lancero are probably my two favorite vitolas. I'll pretty much smoke anything from a PC to a churchill, though.

Re: I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you?
 
My preferred size is almost entirely dependent on my time available to smoke. I love Churchills, Robustos, Petite Coronas, Lanceros, and even the 6x60s. It just depends on the time I have to enjoy. That being said I usually end up with about 40 precent robustos and everything else all different sizes and shapes. I just love smoking cigars period!

Re: I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you?
 
For me it is corona or lanceros..those are my favorites.....but I do like other sizes...generally smaller ring gauges

PCs and Coronas. Been also into torps these past few months when I used to avoid them for no other reason besides liking to punch my cigars over cutting.

Re: I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you?
 
robusto and torpedo please....
maybe corona or pc for change of pace..

Re: I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you?
 
i prefer robusto's and beli's. if it's for the ride to or from work i go for a short robusto or a petite corona (time constraints). if i'm sitting by the fire pit with lil mama, enjoying a couple of fingers of libation, anything from a robusto to a torp. as with others my attention seems to wander at the 1.5 hr point. i smoke 2 or 3 a day so i keep enough various vitolas on hand to satisfy my needs.

Most common for me ends up being a robusto, corona gorda or a corona size depending on what is available in a line.

I agree I think corona are the best size for flavor of the wrapper

Coronas and Robustos are my preferred size but I will smoke any size at least once.
