I prefer the Fuente Fuente. Corona gordas are my favorite size in my sticks.

Might pick up 1 or 2 a year for MSRP, but that's it.

I haven't had too many of them, but I like the XXX and the Perf #5 the best.

Petite Lancero FTW. All the other sizes are good too, but the PL stands out for me.

The Double Corona has been the best for me, I need to try a #2 though.

I've only had the Power Ranger and the Petit Lancero. Like the Power Ranger more but they were both good. They were a nice change of pace but not always worth what they go for, imo.

The robusto size one isn't bad....I'm not really a big fan of the X in general though.

Depends on what I am in the mood for, but I generally thing the larger ring gauges (up to double robusto) taste better. That being said, there is nothing like a number 4 or power ranger if you are in the mood for spice.

Just smoked a robusto and it was very good. Anyone have any #2s they want to get rid of??

Pretty much, yes. They are just like any other brand that has dif shapes/sizes. The longer ones start out pretty much the same as a robusto then get a little stronger as you get past the first half. The XXX "Power Ranger" are a little bit stronger because they are a larger ring guage.
