karp Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 Hoyo Rio Seco in a pyramide… I’d go even narrower but I’m already stretching the rules. 2
MattxG Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 PLPC (42 x 5 1/8) in a partagas 8-9-8 frame (43 x 6 1/4). I've really been enjoying PLPCs lately and would love if they just had a bit more to them. Lusitania (49 x 7 5/8) in a Grand Corona size (46 x 5 5/8). Would be nice if I could have a lusi in a smaller size. Less time required and maybe we'd see more availability if they were a smaller size. 2
Ites Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 Punch 48 in 45. It is probably too close to punch punch but those are only available in tubos in my region and honestly screw tubos! Also RyJ PC or MF in a 6x39 3

DixeyJ Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 I'm a big fan of a good short smoke with a decent RG 44-48 (like a Half Corona) and of my top 3 fav brands most do have something similar to fit the blend of bigger smoke in a smaller ring gauge / size. For RyJ you can get a Churchill lite blend in a Petit Royales, which (price aside) I think are massively underated. Ive seen the factory name written before (incorrectly) as a half Churchill which I think is apt. For Punch you don't really get a Punch Punch in a mini format in the petit coronations, but there is still plenty of that typical nutty Punch flavour for this to fit the bill. My only wish for Por Larranaga would be a PLPC in a short stubby size. The montecarlo is too thin for my ideal RG, despite the right smoking time and the Galanes is too big for a coffee break and from the few I've tasted think they'll need longer to be as sweet (found it more wood and pepper). 2

Fundadores(40rg), Coloniales(44rg), then the Reyes(40rg), are my favorites. In that order. The fatties dont bring anything to the table that the original lineup doesnt. I've smoked almost 200 Vigia, a couple boxes of La Trova, and a handful of the Topes. They're all good, but I much prefer the skinnier models. I would LOVE it if they brought back the robusto extra though. The La Trovas are close to a replacement, but I just dont find them rich enough. 3 1

Well that has been our experience anyway. 3 1
Joeyjojo Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 I'm not too sure about the exact size change, but anything to make an Upmann Half Carona bigger/last longer (ooh,er missus) would be a big plus for me. 4
