    LOL @ Joe! Now my memory isn't as good as it used to be but I don't ever remember your question being asked before.

    An Opus X Perfecxion #5 (4 7/8 x 40) is a whole lot stronger than a Double Corona (7 5/8 x 49).

    On the other hand a Davidoff Gran Cru #1 tastes the same to me as the #2, the #3, the #4 and the #5. They are all the same ring just different lengths.

    That was a great question! Is that your kitty?

    I don't ever remember it being asked either, lol. And great answer Craig. Very logical and from my cigar experience spot on. (not an expert either)

    Kitty? What kitty? Guess I should have shaved before I took that selfie. OK, you got me. I'm nowhere as good looking as that kitten. Actually, that picture is of a Persian kitten I wanted to buy after our 20 year old diabetic Maine Coon died, (150.00 a month in insulin and weekly vet visits for 8 years!) but the wife ain't havin' it. She's still in mourning and for the time being, we are catless.
    I appreciate the honest answers I got here. To sum it up, IT DEPENDS, given the disparity between manufacturers and their vision of what their cigar should be is probably the short answer.
    So, I have no choice but to smoke everything and decide for myself! No, no, don't thank me. It's a dirty, grueling job, but somebody has to do it, and I'm volunteering. However, if the weather doesn't break soon so that I can smoke on the deck, I may not live to complete my task. Although I scurry to the recesses of the basement to smoke, I'm starting to get those squinty eyes (you know the look I mean) from the wife, and I'm very careful about turning my back on her.

    Great advice. I always get a corona size if I want a powerful smoke to be a kicker. Joya de Nicaragua Antano machitos (petite corona)are wicked strong but the churchills are not

    Sorry to hear about your kitty. If you go to my blog here you will see that I too just lost my Maine coon cat of 13 years. I looked at cats too but gg said take you time or your end up with something that really doesn't fit just right for you. So I stopped looking and just keep crying over it I guess I am not ready. Unlike you for me he was low maintenance so there no doubt that I want the same breed. He followed be around like a dog. The worst times are coming home from work and him not being there to greet me. I been here since 2005 and honestly I do not think that question was ever asked so not to hijack the tread totally good question.

    I really am terribly sorry for your loss. They truly are a special breed. Even after a year, I come home and expect to see him stretched out on the bed. They can have replacements, but they can never be replaced. When you're ready, you'll get another, and I expect many pictures!
    Best regards

    Did someone say "Maine Coon?"

    Our all white Maine Coon died three years ago. We immediately replaced her with these three, LOL!:



    The one on the left is Leonardo, he's deaf. The one in the middle is Lilyanna with the blue eyes, they are brother and sister born on my wife's birthday. The one on the right is their "3/4" sister as we say (same father, and their mothers were sisters) her name is Phillippa, born on my wife's late father's birthday. His name was Phil.
