I started out buying large RG cigars because a few years ago, most B&Ms didn't carry a whole lot of cigars under 45-46. It wasn't until I started smoking CCs that I realized a corona or pc really fits my face better. Lately though, it seems that manufacturers are starting to release more laceros and lonsdales, etc. which makes it easy to find something more to my tastes at the local shop.
I remember being told by more than one local vendor that a wider cigar is better because they don't get as hot and they are more complex because the wider gauge allows for more leaves in the blend.
It may be true that you have to smoke a little slower on the thin RGs but if you can't figure out when you're smoking a cigar too fast, you probably need more practice.
