Vitola Profiling

[badwhale]

To confound the issue, some cigarmakers change the blend to compensate for differences in ring. For example, Habanos excludes ligero in narrow-ring cigars.

One can also play with the placement of the filler leaves within the cigar - although, AFAIK, this is only done in perfectos.

I was thinking someone said that before...now I'm sure.

I was just emailing Irish79 the other day that I notice different flavors / body between different sizes of the same line. He was basically asking the same question. So, I agree that this happens.

Edit: This is also why I think its important to list the size for a review.
