I've been steering away from the XL ring sizes due to burn issues, but I'm sure that's not the only reason why so many on the forum prefer to avoid them...So forgive me if this a nebulous question, but generally speaking, what is the correlation (if any) between cigar flavor and vitola size...

Good morning all, and happy Friday!:woohoo: I had some annoying burn issues with many of the 60+ size sticks I was obsessed with for the past 6 months. I'm now learning that smaller ring sizes (and vitolas other than "gigante" or "gordo") are my friend! :nod: State the case for smoking your...

I know the current story up is about is bigger better. My question is what is with the surge of company's releasing 70 and 80 cigars like the 80x6 Asylum 13 or their 70x7 What is the appeal or even benefit to having these Anyone enjoy smoking them It seems like more a bet I'd confront a friend...

Ring Gauge has a big part in aging and flavor of Habanos. It also effects the cost of the stick, and the quickness of the burn. Poll is for Habanos sticks only! So far I am in the 42-44 range.

Sorry, but I've searched the forums and could not find a thread that explains the purpose of the Ring Gauges and the Puff Icon's and their meaning? I see I can increase or decrease someone's Ring Gauge. Some sort of feed back or rating I can give for fellow posters. What do the icon's...

I goggled all over the place for a simple chart on Ring Gauge sizes. All I found was charts of Ring Gauges for common cigar dimensions and "plug your numbers in here" applets. I discerned the formulas and plugged them into excel to show the mm and inches conversions from Ring Gauges 1 through...

Aside from the "normal" things we collect on here... Cigars, pipes, and tobacco accessories not included... What are some things you collect? Pocket knives, watches, ball caps, books, Picasso's, Hummingbird shower curtains... Could be anything... What do you collect?

So a quick question about ring gauge.... Is it standardized? Most of my cigars seem to be dead on, but the Viajes I have are off. The Exclusivo short is supposed to be a RG 42... but measures closer to a 38. Then the Skull and Bones WMD and MOAB are supposed to be a RG 54, but measure closer...

I've noticed some cigars (given same wrapper, series, & filler) seem to taste different given their ring size. Example, the Havana IV Tats in the 50 x 5" vs 5.6 x 46. I notice a slightly sweeter taste with the 46rg than the 50, where as the 50rg I get a stronger nutty flavor. Is this mainly...

I am not sure I am clear on all these items, and couldn't really pick it out of the faq. I think a "bomb" is randomly sending a member samples/items they have posted about or been discussing, along with samples of crap aro? I had one gentleman send me a nice little message and bump my ring...

I tried the Don Lino Africa robusto size (duma) a year or two ago and thought it was a very good cigar for the money. So when I saw a 5-pack of thi... Read the full review here: Don Lino Africa Punda Milia Gordo Cigar Review - Stick with the smaller ring gauge

I don't know, maybe it's just me. It seems that lately I have noticed manufacturers ring gauge system to be a bit off. I just picked up a 5'er of some Comancho's. The ring was supposed to be a 50. I would say it is a 44 on it's best day. I have also noticed this with La Flor Dominicanas. Is this...

Check this bad boy out.

I picked up this Savinelli Bing's Favorite Black & White during smokingpipes.com's 21 days of Christmas sale last week. It arrived yesterday so I thought it would be appropriate to dedicate my video unveiling to Mr. Moo in honor of his achieving the hallowed 10,000 RG mark. Seriously, Moo thanks...
