"A fine cigar is the essence of life. The tobacco plant comes from the earth, from which we ourselves were created. Like ourselves, each leaf grows and is nurtured individually, acquiring its own characteristics, and is then graded, sorted, and matured according to their special abilities. As tobacco comes to its graduation in the making of cigars, as with the making of adults, some is left on the cutting room table and become ordinary, run-of-the-mill products. Some graduate into leadership and areas of responsibility, but a few achieve greatness, and even a touch of immortality." -Prince Sined Yar Maharg
Use this form to help in trying to identify the size name of a cigar. It should be noted that this is a very subjective topic and nearly meaningless. A manufacturer has free reign to use whatever term they like to describe the shape and size of a cigar. In this regard two manufacturers may call two exactly the same sized cigars something different. There are also many more terms for describing cigars than what we have entered into our system. What is contained in our system are some of the more popular sizes and shapes - also very subjective.
