Corona Vs. Robusto

ok. The shape thing is prefrence as I had thought. I have always been fond of the robustos myself.

Just seemed odd that the coronas consistantly had a higher score.

You could easily correlate the smaller rg with more flavor, which in turn gives higher ratings. I would say though, I don't believe any crap CA magazine puts out.. I mean there top 25 is a complete joke.

If you read Cigar Aficianado, ignore the scores for the most part. They are a joke IMHO. Smoke what you like, like what you smoke!

I don't put any stock whatsoever in ANY number scores, anywhere. I like to read the tasting notes and go from there to decide if I want to try something that someone has reviewed.

I like the way they score tho, it's a pretty comprehensive process, better than most companies that have a single person make the decisions. That said, I agree that the scores mean nothing. I've had some solid 90+ cigars that lots of people enjoy but I personally don't care for at all. It's all about what you like yourself.
