Just go with what size you usually prefer... I personally like the 46's and 50's outside of the Sharks.

In order:
46
50
48
49
55
77

I love all of them but I feel like the 46 gives the most wrapper flavor and smokes better. But I love the skinny cigars so I might be biased.

49s are a great smoke, just too long.
50s are my favorites.

Otherwise, like the 50s best after the Sharks.

The Shark is #1 for me but since that is not available the robusto sized one whatever that is called....I'm a wealth of cigar knowledge......

Default Re: which is your favorite anejo size?

If you have time to smoke longer cigars, I really enjoy the 49s.

Although my favorite size is the #50.

Most people like the sharks, the 46s and the 50s. I think the 48s and 49s are a little long. Although I am not a huge fan of the #55's, some people swear by these.

I would just get a random sampling of all the sizes if you can. They are not significantly different to the point that it you like one, you will probably like the others as well.

46 is favorite, but like them all. I've had a Shark, 50, and 49 from the latest release; all but the Shark are the best release I've had in the 3 years I've smoked cigars. The Sharks seemed a bit "off" for some reason, but I got a handful, and will the let the others "swim" for a bit before smoking more. Picked up some 46's today. My local seems to have received more than he has in the last 3 years I've bought from him. He also had a box of Sharks way before Thanksgiving; said they came outa nowhere (like a shark, I guess ).

Funny how the different sizes seem to taste different. It's my understanding that all these are made from the same tobacco....correct?

Make a rum and coke with 1 part rum, 1 part coke, and then compare it to one made with 2 parts rum and 1 part coke, then compare it to one made with 2 parts coke and one part rum and you'll understand.

77, 50, 46, 55 in that order. They are good when young, but even better with some age.
