DWC Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Guys - how much time does it take to smoke of of these, on average, ..say a HDM DU GOURMET ? Not sure of the Du Gourmet but for reference I can tell you a PLMC is at least an hour smoking time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGC Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Thinner ring gauge cigars take longer to smoke, when smoked properly (in comparison to a larger RG of similar length). A proper smoking pace is more important due to the reduced cross-sectional area where the combustion is taking place. Over heating tends to affect the profile of thinner cigars to a greater degree.

Diamondog Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Smoked some cohiba lanceros (bto code) and monte especial no. 1 in havana, brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blakes Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Skinny day today.. QDO Panetela this morning and a PSdC no.2 after dinner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWill Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 The few NC lanceros that I've have were plugged so I stay away from them. I may break down and give a cc skinny a chance based on all of the comments. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OleOle Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Pretty interesting, over 71% said they had a skinny in the last month. Of course the poll numbers could swing around, but it's interesting that skinnies are being smoked seemingly by so many, so regularly. The poll results are a good statement on diversity I think.

rtrimbath Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Had an Oliva V Lancero a few days ago. It's one of my favorite NC's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophistic Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 38 is the perfect rg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiminBC Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I just ordered 18 different lanceros all NC so hopefully that counts. I thin most of them are 38 ring gauge. I have a few CC that are that or small such as BPC which I enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUBANO Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 We smoked the hell out of box of LGC MdO #4 a couple of weeks ago in Cuba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick2021 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 RG Pantelas Extra....a couple were tight, but still a good cigar overall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ha1fway Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I have some sort of cigar induced ADHD and wander between lancero/lonsdale/corona/CG/robusto but I always end up back with the long skinny. Here's hoping for good Fundadores in 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramon_cojones Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 In the past few months I've had lgc 3,4, cce, lanceros, esp 1, esp 2, plmc, qdo panetelas, erdm pan largas, etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedman05 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Trini Fundi last week. I know it's not a 38, but ..... can it be an exception though so I can make it under the bar I prefer to stick to Lonsdales, as I find a little better construction in them.

Brah Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I have at least one a week. Majority of my sticks are under 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahstah Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I see no option for yesterday. Tatuaje OR El Triunfador ... Cinnamon goodness. I do like lonsdales size the best though in general (yes I know the tat is not a lonsdale) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmac77 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Had a 2002 LGC Medaille d'or #3 and a 2005 Quai d'Orsay Pantella last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I had a NC Macanudo Hampton Court a few months ago with a 36 ring gauge...so harsh and so small. It may be a while until I have a sub-40 ring gauge cigar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santela Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Pretty interesting, over 71% said they had a skinny in the last month. Of course the poll numbers could swing around, but it's interesting that skinnies are being smoked seemingly by so many, so regularly. The poll results are a good statement on diversity I think. The poll is likely to be biased, where mostly people who do like skinnies will tend to click on this thread, myself included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
