Poll: Favorite Vitola
Just wanted to get an idea of how we fall out here with regards to preferred vitola.
This list is obviously not all inclusive but represents the more common sizes....select "other" if yours is not reflected. |

It depends on what time of day it is and what season as well. Robusto is usually the size I prefer in the morning and in the colder weather. Toro and torpedo are preferred in the summer or after dinner.

Robusto is what I smoke most often due to time constraints.

Usually robusto's too...although, if I'm not in any hurry I do enjoy torpedo's.

I smake a lot of torps. I like that size for a large format cigar - plenty of room for blending, they burn well and the shape seems to not get as bitter as a churchill or long toro. Smaller size I like lanceros and coronas.
That being said, there are cerain sizes in various smokes that offer the best flavor and that's what I usually pick. |

I am actually quite fond of perfectos. I like the way the flavor changes and evolves over the course of the smoke. Plus they look cool and feel great in your hand!

When I'm exploring a new line I'll pick up a few in various sizes to see which, IMO, offers more smoking enjoyment. |

I tend to like the larger ring gauge cigars, and the torp has superior draw "adjustability" so hands down it gets my vote.

As usual, I guess I go against the grain. Been preferring a lot of lonsdales, lately.

I like the slightly thicker gauge Robustos, just like Anton, due to time restrictions. You can always smoke another
 Also have a lot of torpedos and other 6 x 60s. Those are for the times I know I got 2 hours to burn.

It differs per cigar but I like Torpedos the best generally.

I went with "Perfecto".
All I have in my box with the Perfecto vitola (at the moment) are those La Aurora Preferido Perfecto Tubos. I thought those were cool looking, so I bought the "Treasure Sampler" with five different ones. I'm going to archive them until summertime. I'm smoked some Gurkha perfectos and loved 'em. I like them for no other reason than that they look cool, and typically seem to burn nicely. Everything else is just an ordinary cigar.

I used to be fan of the large cigars. 7+ inches long and 50 or so ring guage. I just don't want that much cigar at one sitting anymore. This is what prefer now.
#1 Robusto #2 Torp or Toro
