I prefer a corona gorda. Max I'll smoke is 7 inches and a 54 ring.

Depends on the cigar. Some cigars/blends I prefer in a narrower/smaller format, others, a larger format.

Flavor. I get more flavor out of a lancero than most other sizes. Lots more wrapper flavor and the core blend itself is more concentrated in a lancero with less useless filler for more flavor.

Depends on the blend. There is always one vitola that is perfect for a blend and, to me, it's rarely anything larger than 6x50 toro and it's usually the smaller rg formats.

I prefer;
lanceros
coronas
petite coronas
lonsdales
dalias
marevas

Late to the party, but much love for the Mareva. Minuto's and Perla's too. Those are favorites, not to say Campanas and Piramides don't get some of my time.

My favorites sizes tend to be in the PC, Lancero and Robusto range as these are the vitolas I tend to buy the most of, but, I like em all really.

I'm finding that I tend to gravitate towards the robusto and belicoso sizes.

I tend to go through different cycles, last year I was craving anything box pressed, mostly in a robusto, toros, or torpedos. Lately I can't get enough churchills or lanceros. Still mostly maduro of course...

I am all over the place depending on the mood/time/marca. One of my favorites as far as the feel is a taco. Pretty much narrows down the marca too considering current production!!

It might be:
Petite Corona
Robusto
Double toro
Churchill
Toro
Lancero
Panatela
et...

Whatever is in my humidor is one of my favorites.
