    as of late, I’ve been smoking 60 rings purely for ego lol nothing makes you feel more like a boss than a wide ring guage. i smoked a smaller ring guage the other night and was reminded of how pure the stick pulls! also nothing like the smoke output of a smaller ring gauge! I love it all

    When I started off I wanted to go for the biggest possible just for the look of it but that 47/49 is the perfect ring gauge

  • @tobebrockner
    @tobebrockner 4 дня назад

    If I have my way, I’m always choosing something around 5.5-6.5 in length with a 46-48 ring gauge. Glad to see these getting some love on the channel.

  • @jony6toes307
    @jony6toes307 Месяц назад +2

    The sweet spot for me is 38 to 46, coronas and half Coronas, Corona gordo.
    But like you Mazz I smoke all sizes. Enjoy Robustos, and Belicosos...
    Great video fellas....

    Love coronas and lanceros, what’s not to enjoy. When you want to focus on the wrapper or just want to experience more intense flavor I find the smaller rings are the way to go. One of my regulars is the Foundation Havana Seed 142. It’s a flat out banger in corona.

  • @Calvinr22
    @Calvinr22 Месяц назад +1

    I’m loving the Oliva V blend lately. I usually smoke the double robusto or the Churchill extra if I have the time. I’ve never encountered the no. 4. I look forward to giving it try. Also the Don Carlos is one of my absolute favorite smokes, top three for sure! The robusto is my go to, but I’ll be trying the no. 3 after watching this vid. Thanks guys. Great post, as always.

    I never thought ring gauges impacted taste until a few months ago. I was used to smoking a TORO size of a particular brand. Went in to buy one, didn't have a TORO, bought the ROBUSTO. Instantly tasted the difference!!!

    New to enjoying cigars. Have come across a couple channels that I watch most and this is one. Very helpful and learning a ton. Thank you. I tend to like the bigger ring gauge when I can enjoy and not be doing anything else. When I’m busy and moving I like the smaller.

    Oliva Serie V number 4 and the Melanio number 4 are amazing. I love cigars in the 38-46 ring gauge range, in fact that's what I smoke 90% of the time and 50 ring gauge is about as big as I smoke.

  • @deckard97th
    @deckard97th Месяц назад

    Love this channel, and also a small ring gauge cigar. As a guy in his 50s, on the cusp of old school, a corona feels familiar.
    A ring gauge anywhere between 42-49 is perfect, though cigars 50+ are perfect, too, in their own way. Burn & learn! The Oliva Connecticut Reserve Lonsdale (44 x 6.5) is a top five desert island pick - a wonderful toasty, buttery smoke in a great size. Thanks to Holt's for great cigars, excellent entertainment, and smoky education - cheers from north Georgia!

  • @NathanDodson
    @NathanDodson Месяц назад +2

    See, I started off in the robusto-corona gorda range (the majority of the sticks I was getting in the Holt's COTM boxes) and I eventually ventured into the Lancero size and corona sizes of a couple of my favorite blends and now I think I'm kinda a thinner ring gauge guy 🤷 I even usually bring Lanceros to the links more than Churchills.

    • @holtscigars

    Don Carlos #4 may not make it home from the lounge tomorrow. You guys read my mind when developing content. I’ve smoked almost exclusively Churchills in the 50+ range. Just got into the idea of premium cigarillos and have enjoyed it. Thanks for the premium recommendations in your previous video. Got me thinking a corona or something small might really hit the spot without the 1.5 hour time requirement.

    I smoked the 898 last week and really was not all that impressed with the smaller ring gauge. Just felt funny and the taste to me was a little bit off. One thing I have learned is if your cigar starts to taste what some would call better if you purge it while it’s still lit, the flavor takes on a whole new meaning.everybody’s pallet is different.

    We know the ashton, my father, la aroma etc etc well by now since it gets covered so much on this channel..

As to the cigars, was that a maduro wrapper on Fach's. Have to be careful though, they can be a knockout. Maybe a review of maduro wrappers. Got turned on to these years ago in Maui, the ONYX line.
