hell at 18" long you could beat someone to death with your cigar... turn your head too rapidly and light someone on fire...
I started out loving the big sticks, 6 x 60 was my sh!t, more cigar for the money and they are always cheaper on bid sites... but as time progressed the fellas here got me straightened out... bigger isn't always better... I have had huge cigars taste like nothing, and itty bitty (by comparison) petite coronas knock my socks off...
If you like biga$$ cigars, more power to ya brother, but coming from another still semi-noob... if you havent checked out the world of "smaller cigars" you don't know what you are missing...
