I pick them by how many vowels are in the name of the cigar / marque.

Would that be more vowels or fewer? As for myself, I like diphthongs.

When deciding what to smoke, I usually go by taste profile followed by ring gauge. And sometimes I just randomly grab something out of my death row desktop.

I don't know about how others pick their smokes, but I tend to pick based on:

1. It has a flavor I am interested in
2. I have time to finish it

RG, length, etc. may go in to #1, but are not normally a standalone criterion. Mind you, sometimes on skype we'll pick a theme such as CE, lonsdale, etc. but that is more the exception than the rule.
