CC's have more uniformity since they are all made by one company, so I tend to use their vitolas de galera as a benchmark for naming cigars by size, especially since they are still largely using the traditional sizes. Their Petit Robusto is 4 inches by 50 RG and their Petit Edmundo is a little larger at 4 3/8 by 52 RG. Their robustos are 4 7/8 inches long, so I would say anything less than 4 1/5 inches long with RG of 48-52 can safely be called a "Petit Robusto." Don't even get me started on how stupid the use of the word Corona Gorda has gotten in the NC world. It now encompasses everything from 5 3/8 x 46 to 6 x 60!

So then, I'm not the only one confused by this... That's good to know.
