Yes it does. Take the same line of cigars, with the same constiuent tobaccos to make each size, and they are going to be similar - but different. It comes down to the fact that a larger ring guage on a cigar allows the bunch to contain more tobacco. A longer cigar allows the flavors to build, if I can say it that way.

Some will say one size is better than another, then someone else will disagree. Some will vehemently say that there are severe flavor differences.

While there indeed are some differences, each size has its own strengthes.

The best way to determine which is best for you is to try different sizes of the same brand. In one line, you may like the Robustos, in the next brand your favorite is the double toros, while in another brand the petite corona is your favorite.

For example: For the Tatuaje Brown banded cigars, my favorite is the Noella and the larger cigars I find I do not like. In the Coronado line, I have found that the larger the ring guage the more I like them, and while I generally like Lanceros, in this, one of my favorite lines, I am not a fan of their Coronado at all.

Do some experimentation on your own.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
