Default Favorite Vitola?

What's your favorite Vitola? Nice, fat 60 ring, or a thin Lancero?
Also, do you find that your favorite cigar has a different taste in different sizes?
One of my milder go- to sticks is a Cusano 18 Paired Maduro. My preference is for the Gordo, followed by the Toro.a I do not really care for the Churchill - find the flavors somewhat diluted or muted. Interesting that it's entirely possible for the size of otherwise identical cigars to have a bearing on the flavor.

Corona and Robusto. When I first started smoking I thought bigger would be better. Now I'm of the opposite opinion.

I like the smaller stuff: Petit cetros, Standards (4 3/4 x 39), Marevas and Creamas.
