Lancero or Big Boy

[MadMonk]

I like lanceros if the blend works. With the current lancero craze, I find that some smokes in that format do not do the blend justice. Same goes for 60's. I've had some 60's that were awesome...again, blend dependant.
As a matter of pure comfort, I'd go with a lancero.

The first many cigars I bought myself where robusto size, but anymore I find myself gravitating more towards smaller cigars in general.

Damn I though I was one of the few that liked the lancero! :angry:

Ever since the last Vegas Herf!

 

[Ocat]

Lanceros. Like the smaller gage cigars but will smoke other sizes too. It all depend on the blend and how it smokes in the different sizes.

6x60 is a bit large, so my vote is for the Lancero.....but

I like a chunky smoke, 50-54 is where I like to spend my time

Between the 2, Lancero, but I usually prefer something around 46-50.

 

[LilBastage]

Between the two I prefer the Lancero. Of course this is assuming it's rolled well. There's nothing worse than a cigar with the great potential of many lanceros being plugged. I've had more plugged lanceros than any other vitola.

Overall, I prefer 40-50 ring gauge smokes.

Lanceros are my favorite vitolas by far. I just love them!

Lancero. 38-46 is where I spend most of my smoking time.

 

[Kingantz]

If these two sizes were sitting side by side, and I had to choose, I'd go with the 6 x 60 first.

Then, when I was done with that one, I'd smoke the lancero.

Man, its a preference thing for sure....

I try to enjoy kicking back with a lancero but it's just not the same experience compared to when I'm smoking a 50/52/54 gauge. I'm still feeling my way around -- and I think I'm going to do my personal experiment this summer. One day a week (ok, maybe 2), I'll take a smaller gauge and a larger gauge cigar of the same type and do the side by side test. Maybe that will help....

I enjoy a lot of the fatter cigars. However, the more I come into contact and fire up the smaller RG's I am gravitating more towards them. I do not know if this is due to the fact that is has been cold out so I dont want to have to take the time to smoke one, but we shall see. Now that it is getting to be warmer, we shall see what I reach for!

Both. Depends on my mood.

 

[TMarquis]

I prefer the large RG's, 50+ is all I find myself purchasing anymore, the bigger the better. I just don't enjoy smoking the small RG cigars, feels too much like a ciggy to me, and I just don't feel like they have the taste explosion that I get from the large RG cigars. I smoked an Opus X Perfection 5, and it was WAY too small RG for me, thought it could've been a better smoke if it were larger, and tasted better, heh.

 

[Dr. Marneaus]

Never smoked either. Am I missing out on this lancero business?

 

[Mizicke5273]

I havent smoked enough of the two to vote for either. Although I did have my first lancero the other day. Twas a Oliva Serie V. Was damn good. Gona try and pick up a box soon after I get home.

But since were on the topic of size. I mostly like a toro or robusto btw 48-54 ring gauge.
