I'm a Corona Type of Guy How about you? - Page 2

I always go for the robusto or toro. They always hit the spot.

Pseudosacred · 06-25-2012, 04:29 PM

I really like Lanceros and Robustos. Robustos being more comfortable to hold. Although, I am a complete sucker for torpedos. If there is a blend I want to try that has multiple sizes, I'll almost always go for the torpedos. Don't know why, it just happens that way...

Dunkel · 06-25-2012, 04:30 PM

Robusto and Corona mostly for me. Sometimes I'll smoke a Torpedo or Belicoso and rarely a Toro. My least favorite is Lancero/Panatelas. I like to enjoy my smoke not babysit it. 56 is about the biggest ring I'll smoke.

Big Bert · 06-25-2012, 04:34 PM

Robusto, coronas and lanceros for me although I haven't smoke much lanceros but I like them... mostly anything less than a 52 rg will do

MrWolf55 · 06-25-2012, 04:46 PM

I'm a smaller-rg smoker myself. 90% of the time I'll always opt for a petit corona or equivalent. Although I love smoking cigars, no matter how much I'm enjoying a stick, after the 1 1/2 hour point I start getting bored or lose interest in it. The fact that the only place I can smoke at my home is outside doesn't help either. Plus petit coronas are typically the cheapest vitola and I can try more new stuff for less. If i'm celebrating or have a lot of time to myself, sometimes I'll venture into corona or robusto land. But churchills, toros, double coronas...eh, not for me.

To that end, I really wonder why the prevailing trend right now seems to be huge rg jawbreakers? The folks at Perdomo seem to be the biggest offenders.

kelmac07 · 06-25-2012, 04:49 PM

I love me some belicosos/toros...but find myself really enjoying coronas as of late.

Bill86 · 06-25-2012, 04:49 PM

Lanceros, Lonsdales, PC's....anything 38-44 RG. However I will admit I like Piramides as well (PSP2's, Cuabas, Dip 2's

) but I cut those at 42-44 RG.

JJG · 06-25-2012, 04:59 PM

I'd say the Corona falls right in the middle of my preferred range of cigars. 50rg being to about as wide as I like to go, all the way down to 40 or 38. So yeah, the corona is just about average size for me.

Also, I like to keep my smoke sessions under the 1.5 hour mark, otherwise I get bored. On the other hand, if it's gone in less than 45 minutes, I'm usualy left wanting to light another.

FriendlyMan · 06-25-2012, 07:48 PM

I totally relate to your second comment. If it takes to long I loose interest. It's made to enjoy, if its to long that you have to rush it that's not interesting.
I guess my attention span for smoking has its limits.

Corona gorda and lancero are probably my two favorite vitolas. I'll pretty much smoke anything from a PC to a churchill, though.

GodOfFire · 06-25-2012, 09:57 PM

My preferred size is almost entirely dependent on my time available to smoke. I love Churchills, Robustos, Petite Coronas, Lanceros, and even the 6x60s. It just depends on the time I have to enjoy. That being said I usually end up with about 40 precent robustos and everything else all different sizes and shapes. I just love smoking cigars period!

ironchefscott · 06-25-2012, 10:26 PM

For me it is corona or lanceros..those are my favorites.....but I do like other sizes...generally smaller ring gauges

44stampede · 06-25-2012, 11:16 PM

PCs and Coronas. Been also into torps these past few months when I used to avoid them for no other reason besides liking to punch my cigars over cutting.

gbum · 06-26-2012, 01:38 AM

robusto and torpedo please....
maybe corona or pc for change of pace..

doc_gonzo64 · 06-26-2012, 02:34 AM

i prefer robusto's and beli's. if it's for the ride to or from work i go for a short robusto or a petite corona (time constraints). if i'm sitting by the fire pit with lil mama, enjoying a couple of fingers of libation, anything from a robusto to a torp. as with others my attention seems to wander at the 1.5 hr point. i smoke 2 or 3 a day so i keep enough various vitolas on hand to satisfy my needs.

jledou · 06-26-2012, 05:48 AM

Most common for me ends up being a robusto, corona gorda or a corona size depending on what is available in a line.

czerbe · 06-26-2012, 07:52 AM

I agree I think corona are the best size for flavor of the wrapper

Coronas and Robustos are my preferred size but I will smoke any size at least once.
