15 minutes to smoke a d6? I would hope they last longer than that!

Yeah! A HUHC lasts me 40 minutes...

Hey LG,

You know you're supposed to light one end right? Not just suck on it . . . innocent.gif

Might a shortage of decent larger wrapper leaf also have some impact here?

Atfer all, when one only has lemons, the best product to sell is lemonade.

Mine last on average: one hour.

No idea how you blokes smoke... but I take savouring, long lasting puffs! ;)

but honestly, I thought it would've taken me 45 max and that just didn't happen the first time. Shame as I had to put them out early :(

PCs for the drive to work.

Robustos for the drive home.

Churchills for basketball games.

Quinteros for mowing the yard.

I believe this has more to do with a wrapper leaf shortage than actual market research... Lemonade from lemons.

I don't think so. They might have a problem with larger leaves for large vitolas (an issue evoked by El Presidente a few days ago), but I don't believe the wrapper leaves for petits robustos, petits edmundos, magicos, etc. are different from those used for standard robustos/hermosos4; they're just cut to the size…

BB's quote might still be valid. If Tabacuba is constrained by short filler leaves then the only way to get a cigar with a larger weight is to increase the ring gauge. For example, the Trinidad Vigia is the same weight as a Dalia, however they cannot make a Trinidad Dalia because of the shortage of long filler leaves. The D6 is the same weight as a Laguito #2. Just a thought.
