illusione epernay favorite size?

[Louistogies]

What's your favorite size in the epernay line? And why?

[icehog3]

Le Petite...only reasons for me, I like the size, and it's been the best tasting of all I've tried.

LOL! When I buy a cab I'll send you some, long as I don't buy these.

Thanks, Louis, I have a few, but you are a gentleman and a scholar. :)

Le Elegance tasted best to me. I've also enjoyed the Le Grande. I've got a couple of Le Monde in the humi waiting to try. The box pressed Le Matine is also great. Hard to go wrong with these. Just get a sampler and decide for yourself.

One of my favorite sticks, period. Had one yesterday on a drive with the wife, I friggin' love 'em and they fit in my vintage tortiose celluloid clam-shell case.

Le Petite are my favorites as well

Another vote for Le Elegance although the Petite is pretty close!!!

Le Petite was my favorite until I smoked the Le Taureau. The Le Taureau is a flavor bomb.

The smaller( thinner) the better.

[QiCultivator]

I thought Le Ferme was pretty good. I had 10 of those last year. I'm looking forward to trying one of the Le Grandes I have resting.

[Silound]

They all get amazing if you sit on them for a while. I prefer the Le Petite as well, because the wrapper is so flavorful.

I wouldn't mind seeing that blend in a 4x50 short robusto size.

[Fia]

Le Grande for me. Flavor is great and I like the size.

I have to agree with this, with the petite close on its heels.

[Mr B]

For me the smaller ring guages do it, in the Epernay (and Illusione) line.
#1 Le Elegance.
#2 Le Petite.

[TJtorpedo]

The Le Elegance is great, but to me they are all pretty awesome with some age on them.

[danreeve]

All the guys saying the smaller ring gauge the better, have you tried the Le Taureau? I was right there with you until I tried the three new bigger box pressed sizes.

Just wondering.

[srduggins]

I haven't, but I'd like to.

[Louistogies]

I'm looking to buy a cab soon. So thanks for your info guys. So far its between Le Elegance and Le Ferme. But I still haven't tried Le Petite and Le Taureau. Keep the suggestion coming!

[billybarue]

Le ferme. i like the corona gorda size. 48 RG still lets wrapper influence flavor profile, but not as much as the petite.

Picked up a cab a few months ago for $325!!

Le Elegance

Had the Le Petite last night. Amazing cigar and incredibly complex. Burned for over an hour with no touch ups

[cigardan]

I like the Le Ferme. The bigger sizes in this brand do not do it for me, and I am not a fan of RGs smaller than 46/48. This smoke in this size (5.25" x 48) just seems to perform really well.

[ironchefscott]

Love the le ferme.....but I guess I have only had a few of them.....so who knows...my opinion might change
