BIG RING GAUGES
It’s amazing to me how quickly the last part of the year flies. We’re already half way through October, and before you know it we’ll be doing our annual holiday gift recommendations and then ringing in a new year. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves; fall is here so let’s enjoy it.

Although I tend to favor smaller ring gauges (generally never larger than a 48), lately I’ve been trying out some of the big ring gauge bad boys that have been so popular over the past couple of years.

Although I find thinner ring gauges to be a little more elegant and comfortable for me to smoke, I have to admit that the larger ring gauges offer a great experience since there’s so much room for so many tobaccos. Additionally, the thickness keeps the cigar burning cooler, which is always welcomed.

So, here are a few of the larger ring gauge smokes I’ve been enjoying lately and I hope you do too!!!

THE ZINO PLATINUM CROWN 2009 EMPEROR EDITION. (58 RING GAUGE)
We featured this cigar as a new arrival on the last newsletter, and have since blown through about half of our inventory between the two stores. With only 2,000 boxes of ten available in the U.S., we are not expecting this production to last very long. It's a full-bodied, full-flavored omnipotent Robusto at 5\" X 58 ring gauge. Two Piloto Ligero fillers from 2 different areas in the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua are bound by a Corojo/Olor hybrid binder. The dark, oily wrapper (Cuban-seed grown in Ecuador) has undergone a special fermentation process to make it incredibly flavorful delivering flavors of strong coffee, dark chocolate, and a touch of earth.

Also be sure to check out the Zino Platinum Crown Barrel (60 Ring Gauge) also available as a Tubo.

DAVIDOFF MILLENNIUM BLEND SHORT ROBUSTO (52 RING GAUGE)
It may require shorter time, but this cigar is NOT short in flavor. Its medium-full bodied with touches of spice and earth in a creamy smoke. Cool smoke and a long finish make this cigar unbeatable.

SUPER SELECTION NO. 14 (54 RING GAUGE)
Made exclusively for the Davidoff stores in New York by Davidoff, the Super Selection is one of our most popular cigars. The No. 14 is the newest and the fullest. It’s got solid tobacco flavors, in a slightly linear flavor profile that is intended to focus on richness and boldness smoking with more ‘obvious’ flavors rather than ‘subtle’ flavors.

CAMACHO COROJO GIGANTE SUPER TORO (54 RING GAUGE)
The Kings of Corojo, Camacho really helped bring focus to this great type of tobacco. Made entirely of Honduran-grown Honduran Corojo, this full-bodied smoke is loaded with earth, spice and leather! Also available in Large Ring Gauges by Camacho are the Camacho 10th Anniversary, Camacho Diploma, and Camacho Triple Maduro. Please call for these.
