gersonmorelli Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 I like the idea of an 109, however it is over an hour of smoking time. I'd go with a corona, considering HSA already discontinued most of the reg production cigars on this size.
beamer Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 I'm partial to the Dalia-esque sizes, for what it's worth. Figurados always seem like too much trouble. Maybe I've just never had a really good one?
mk05 Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 In all seriousness: 1) laguito #2 2) lonsdale; corona largas 3) cheroot
jacktarnold Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 My vote is for a petit perfecto, similar to La Escepción Perfectos (44x127) This size is similar to the Celestiales Finos but 2 ring sizes smaller and about a half inch shorter. I think that the perfectos size would allow for a fuller body cigar and more complexity than a corona or petit corona. Plus if you want historical, most historical sizes were rolled as a figurado and not a parejo.
riazp Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Absolutly love the idea of a corona gorda (my fav size) and naming it after Guy. or a flying pig and calling it "le cochon". Whatever comes out I'm buying them all. Saving my pennies for the customs for sure
bacalao Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Only input I have is make a ton of them. I would hate not to score any. I have yet to get my hands on either of the first two customs.
SmokinLightning Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Nothing beats a classic corona... especially one with a beautiful dark oily wrapper like my Tampas had.
Strada Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Here is my top 3: 1-Corona Gorda 2-Flying Pig 3-Perfecto Love the Celestial Finos shape you chose for the czar. I am looking forward to those customs Rob!
phoenix Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Corona Grande or Panatela Extra. Medium bodied, balanced and complex, with long term aging potential. You could call the Corona Grande the "Le Czar Des Redieux" and the Panatela Extra the "Serie du Connaiczar No.2" Put me down for a 50 cab of either.
El Presidente Posted June 13, 2012 Author Posted June 13, 2012 Some great ideas indeed The Tampa will stay as it is (Dalia"ish" shaggy). I love that cigar. The Czar I want to keep at Celestiales Fino size...maybe a gauge larger. The LIsadores I may add an inch to. Lisadores 738. It fills the gap between short and long skinnies. Should we do the Corona Gorda then it will likely be a shaggy as well. Naming it after Guy is a given. I like the idea of a Flying Pig (not sure I can pull that off). I would like to see any photo's of vintage flying pigs + the size if possible. Please post them here. I have the name for it Ideally I would seek to do the Lisadores, Tampa and Corona Gorda with shiny Colorado wrappers. The Czar and FP with shiny Colorado maduro/maduro.

Corona Gorda Shaggy Foot.
in0gravity Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 A little to the party but what about a laguito no. 2 with an open foot and 42 ring? Or a Petit Salomones size 142 x 57? regards Lars
NJP Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 All for the Corona Gorda for Guy. And all the others YES PLEASE. A PC Czar custom all year round.
SmokinLightning Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 Should we do the Corona Gorda then it will likely be a shaggy as well. Naming it after Guy is a given. That's your winner right there... shaggy foot, love the size, and honoring Guy on his road to recovery rounds it out nicely.

I have a feeling this has something to do with Ken. Not a fan of corona gordas, they're neither here nor there right in the middle of no mans land in terms of size but am supportive if for Guy.
CanuckSARTech Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 ...Ideally I would seek to do the Lisadores, Tampa and Corona Gorda with shiny Colorado wrappers. The Czar and FP with shiny Colorado maduro/maduro. Only thing out of all this is the wrapper becoming lighter on the Tampa's. The ones I have are dark and rich, and while I haven't smoked any of my original three, the aromas are dense. And what I can remember of everyone's reviews say that the darker wrapper seems to add to the smoothness yet richness. Plus, I just plain like darker wrappers.... Yup, I'm a PSP-dark lover....
Professor Twain Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Glad to see you're returning the Tampa, it was an epic cigar. The new Czar sounds great too. For Lisa's cigar, how about a Petit Cetros in cedar, like the RJ Coronitas en Cedro? Like a lovely lady in a pretty cedar dress.
