(Two non-robusto entries were submitted, but not included, for rigor.) The data is here. Mean 70 minutes Median 71 minutes Mode 80 minutes Std Dev 17.81 minutes Average age: 3.8 years Average score: 90.1 points Finally, I noticed a weak correlation between time of day and the duration of the smoke. For every 3 hours which pass during the day, a smoke tends to last 5 minutes longer -- an observation which we should take with a grain of salt... Hope these rough findings are of interest. There may be a bit more buried in here, but the data set is limited. Cheers! Planetary: YOU ROCK!!! I love this stuff. Thanks! 2

Great work @planetary The findings are fascinating and supported my beliefs about the popularity/sales of robustos by brand. More importantly you statistically (with available data points) answered El Prez' question. Well done sir! 1

I hear great things about Vuelta Abajo. I have some of that growing, too! I just did my first priming of Corojo 99, Little Dutch, and Florida Sumatra. They are now hanging in my sophisticated curing chamber (AKA the garage!). The first priming yielded two full wires of leaf, each 6ft long. Now I'm wondering where all the rest will go when it comes time to harvest! 2

I'm sure I'm not the only one that would like to see them.

Thanks for your comments! I will, but it will be while yet. Once the leaf color cures (turns brown), I will be force-aging it in a kiln. 1 month at 125F and high humidity yields a product that is comparable to leaf that has naturally aged for about 1 year.
