How Long Does it Take to Smoke a Cigar?
November 7, 2008 by GodFadr
This is a surprisingly common question I get but it is an almost impossible answer. My friend Tommy laughs when I can make a smoke last as long as the “recommended smoke time.”
In a nutshell, the bigger they are the longer they smoke (like you had to go to a Cigar site to figure that out, huh?). Ok, ok, here are few benchmarks…
Presidente (8” – 10”) – about 1 to 1 ½ hours.
Double Corona, Churchill, Lonsdale (7 ½” – 8”) – about 45 minutes to an hour.
Corona Grandes, Corona Extra, Rubusto, Belicoso, Pyramid (5”-7”) – about 30 – 45 minutes.
Petite Corona, Culebra, Ascot – under 30 minutes.
Buy the Godfather a Cigar (or a cup of coffee)!
Is this Power Smoker Godfather times or normal people
Wow those times are pretty short!!
For a beginner like me, usually i take 45-60mins for a petit or corona (bolivar petit corona, partagas aristrocrates & conn. 3), 70-100 mins for a robusto, corona gorda or belicosos (magnum 46, epicure especiales, P2, RASS, etc).
Well, Clouder, I would rather be you! Unfortunately, some of us are “power smokers.”
If it takes you longer, you are just getting more for your money!
