whats everyones favorites

None. I like a rg of 50 or less personally. My ideal vitola is a corona gorda (5 5/8x46) or a robusto (4 7/8x50). I also love coronas and lanceros.

While a large ring gauge does allow for faster, rougher smokers to enjoy a cigar, they tend to wash out the flavor from the wrapper, and have some serious burn issues for us slower smokers (ie. impossible to keep all 60 64ths of circumference lit without drawing more than I am used to)

That said, some very fine smokes come in these sizes

I also like smaller ring gauges most of the time, however some sticks are just better in the larger gauge.

The Oliva Series V comes to mind, and the ruinations as well. There are others but those two stand out for me. Nubs as well.

i really prefer 50 an up.

my favorite big stick is the rocky 99 vintage...i think the big ring guage in that stick is good because it enhances the flavor profile of it.....but i do like the bigger guages just in general but very rarely will buy any

Im a smaller guage guy as well. 46 to 50 is ideal for me.

For 60 +
Gurkha Legend Perfecto &
Nubs
They're the only 60+ rings I've had that I've liked (so far). I too have discovered rings into the high 40's that I've enjoyed.....

"EL Perfecto"

40's and 6" and under. But it depends on the smoke sometimes the bigger ring gauges are better with some blends

50 and up also.

The Graycliff G2 Turbo is probably my favorite 60 ring. It's a torpedo so while you're puffing, it feels like a 54 or less.

I really love the Perdomo Habano Connecticut in the 60ring.
The NUB Cameroon,
The Gurkha Centurian, and the list goes on and on.

My Inventory

CAO Brazilia, Diesels and Gurkha Evil XOs come to mind. Just had the G2 Turbo that was good as well.

I tolerate large ring gauges if a tasty smoke only comes in sizes fat or fatter (diesel, etc.) but in general I prefer around 48. Too big and they seem to take a lot of effort keeping the wrapper lit and the draw is too loose.
