The group of smaller ice cubes due to surface area and density are going to melt more quickly than a larger block with more surface area. So the long filler will "maturate" more slowly, in theory, than a short filler. Or one could say the short filler cigar has more edges that are exposed to the elements vs. a properly hand rolled long filler. How often do you see the middle of a stick, aka the filler, dry out first vs the wrapper.

My logic and 3 cents.

If this conversation were about plug tobacco versus loose tobacco, then maybe. But short vs long, nach.

I slept at a Holiday Inn Express once but never claimed to be an expert. I think that is where my brain might have been headed or was thinking of a short filler of the Swisher Sweets variety.

Nach, nach, nach!

SERENITY NOW!
