Large Ring Guage

[Namerifrats]

Just wondering who here likes that large RG cigars. By large, I'm talking 56 RG in size and up. I usually like the 50-54 RG myself. I've smoked smaller ones but usually don't care for anything less than a 46 RG. I have quite a few larger cigars in my collection but have not tried them yet. Such as a Nat Sherman Banker at 5 x 66. Also have a couple La Gloria Cubana Serie R No. 7 cigars, coming in at 7.00 x 58. Just wondering who likes the big smokes here. I've read that people should smoke what fit's their "look". I'm a big guy myself but don't really know that big guys should smoke big cigars. I just don't really like those little pencil sized cigars and like the "classic" fat cigar I guess.

Not a fan of large cigars, a 50 rg robusto is about the top for me. The "classic" size cigar is a corona (42 rg x 5.5 inches) which is just about perfect for me.

I don't necessarily like 56 and up but I like larger RGs. I personally don't buy and keep many under 50 - not that I don't like a corona or lancero once in a while.

I like the larger ring gauge, but not exclusively. I also like 50-56 as well.

I like all sizes, but 46-54 are my favorites. Robustos and Toros are my usual smoke.

I just go for what is the most cost effective, which is usually a smaller ring gauge. I do not have a particular size preference, I will smoke what ever is in my hand.

I like the bigger ring gauges. I just like the heavy in the hand feel that this gives me, and I have found that the bigger ring gauges feel like that. The La Gloria Series R Maduro #7 is one of my favorite all time cigars!
I am a big guy, but I still don't think you need to smoke a big cigar because of that. I like the Oliva Series R Lancero very much!

I tend to lean towards the larger rings myself... 50+. I will buy cigars in the high 40's but generally stay away from the smaller smokes. Just a matter of preference.

Yeah at first I was totally into the big ones, but now I enjoy a lot of smaller gauges too.

I like the larger ringe guages but don't smoke them exclusively.

Two of my favorite large ring guage cigars are the RP Vintage & Sungrown 6x60. I also saw that Pepin has a black label out now in a 6x60 that I'm looking forward to trying.

My two favorite cigars at the moment are the Pepin Black in the robusto size (loaded up with 40 during the past 2 Joecigar deals) and the Tatuaje Angeles.

Usually the determining factor when I pick one out is the time I will have to smoke it. During the summer I didn't smoke anything larger than a robusto because I didn't want to be outside that long. Now that it's cooling off, the larger cigars are coming back out.

Love the large ring gauges. Myself if a cigar gets under 48 I will usually shy away.
I went througt a phase of wanting 60 gauge almost always but I like robustos a lot.

Depends on what I want if I have time I'll take a big guy and just enjoy it. They are typically a little smoother than the little guys. So if I'm the mood for some power. Robustos. The perdomo Habano robusto has a 54 RG and are really nice.
