I will produce both as a trial: CG in a drop styled head + a CF. 

next challenge is the 55 flying pig & piglet.

Cg - why mess with perfection 

I love the CF visually but hate how many have cracked feet

Looks great until when it comes time to packaging. 

....then you have Fuzz calling the office under an alias saying that his custom cigars were damaged in transit. 

....he thought it was very funny. 

.....It was Di's second day on the job and he made her cry

Bad Fuzz Bad Fuzz but boy did he apologize after that  

And I didn't cry just really freaked out.....Smithy didn't know what to do or how to calm me down

46 x 120 mm would fill a gap.

I think that’s what the “drop styled head” is referring to, at least hopefully.

[MrBirdman]

A dropped head or “cabeza tumbado” (don’t quote my Spanish) is an old fashion head that was used on the Hunters and Frankau 225th Anniversary below:

  I love the whole project, an unbanded CF would pretty much epitomize everything my mind conjures up whenever the project is mentioned; harks back to a simpler age, passion, tactile not bling, a search for something fond that has slipped from our grasp

[david9985]

You've got a way with words @CaptainQuintero 😁

[GavLew79]

Corona Gorda, IMO. CF is unlikely to add 20% more flavour for the price. Don't get the fascination with the CF shape. It gets burned just the same as the other shaped bunch of leaves. Smoke comes out of the end just like any other cigar. 👍🏻

[Bill Hayes]

your fav size - corona gorda. 

[cgoodrich]

CG vote for me as well. But promise I won’t cry if it’s a CF…or drop head…🤓

[Doctorossi]

Straight up corona gorda, please!

@El Presidente Does non Cuban leaf have the ability to recreate the more mild side of Cubans? I can see the potential for Partagas, Bolivar and Mag46, a Cazzie etc but how well does it kens itself to say a Diplomaticos or ERDM?

  Is leaf purely the limiting factor or is it possible if you've the blending and logistical ability?

Quality Cuban tobacco has an underlying "sweet", rich, mellowness that isn't found anywhere else. 

NC tobacco can be blended to achieve some profiles. I can't see right now what I could use to blend a ERDM CX profile.  Honeyed milk coffee cake elegance 

That is the beauty however. There is so much NC tobacco to play with. Never say Never.

Corona Gorda

[Smatthews607]

I would love to see a Corona Gorda. It would be perfect for a long summer afternoon.
