Which vitolas do you find the most difficult to smoke because of construction/humidification/burn/draw problems? I like Churchill's, but they often seem to have draw issues, when I smoke them at least, and it's starting to tick me off!
So vent your rage here!

if you store your sticks properly and drybox accordingly, you should have no issues burning through any vitola. give it a shot.

Panatelas, because they require the utmost patience and attention to how often you puff!

Get a little too enthusiastic with one of these and you might have foiled an otherwise great smoke! I've shot myself in the foot with a panatela a couple of times.

For me the longer a cigar is the more likely it is to give me trouble. Usually though the only trouble I have is with the draw on cigars and it's usually fixable with a little poking and proding.

For me it's figurados but that's probably because they are so difficult to roll well that the chance of getting one that will have burn issues is that much greater.

yeah I agree, I chose perfecto, but at the same time its one of my favorite vitolas due to its uniqueness.

longer cigar=more possibility for problems or issues

This is getting kind of interesting to me. I really thought the problems would be "stacked" towards one range of sizes, but so far, pretty evenly dispersed...

I would say lancero because you have to ash more often but that does not mean I dont like them. Lancero's are my faves as they offer the most flavor profile changes.

I have not had a problem with a particular size or shape, it has been more with a brand that gives me problems.

I do have some 60 rg RP 1990/1992 and they are just to large to enjoy.
