Default Re: Help a noob out - Cigar Shapes

1. youre not a noob!

2. The first two are completely different than the bottom two (which are similar). All are Figurados though (oddly shaped)

Belicoso has a head tapered to a point. The body is an even cylinder. (Similar looking to a Pyramid which gradually tapers from foot to head)


Perfecto has a tapered head, fatter body, and a tapered foot. This cigar always reminds me of the cigars smoked in cartoons like Dumbo.



Diademas and Solomones are interchangeable except for the size I believe

Party Solomone


Punch Diademas Extra

After looking for these pics, it appears that the factory name for Solomones and Diademas are "Perfectos". I always think of the La Auroras when I hear perfecto, but I can understand the confusion.
