Question about sizes

ihocky2 · 07-19-2011, 11:57 AM

I have some questions regarding cigar sizes and shapes and their relationship to their flavor. I don’t really know much about the differences you’ll get between different sizes and shapes, can anyone please help explain. I know that typically larger ring gauge and longer cigars have a cooler smoke, but besides that what are typical differences. I know there are no hard and fast rules, but I am just looking for some common or typical differences that one would expect to find.

Also, I’ve seen mention about the large ring size craze, what do most consider a large ring gauge. Robusto’s have been around a long time and are typically a 50 ring. My thinking is the 58’s and on up are probably what is mostly being referred to.
