Giant Cigars: The Biggest Cigars for Connoisseurs!

Giant cigars promise supreme enjoyment in XXL format. They not only impress with their size but also with their exclusive taste. 

What Are Giant Cigars?

There is no standard definition for the world's largest cigars. Some cigars are so big they can't even be smoked, measuring several meters in length. However, we will focus on XXL cigars that can actually be enjoyed while smoking. 

Length

Typical XXL cigars range between 20 and 55 centimeters in length, clearly setting them apart from regular cigars (which are 15 to 20 centimeters long). 

Diameter

Another distinguishing feature is the diameter, which can be classified as:

• very thick (2.4 to 4.0 centimeters), 

• thick (2.0 to 2.4 centimeters), and

• medium-thick (1.5 to 2.0 centimeters) giant cigars. 

Ring Gauge

A ring gauge of 50 still falls within the category of a normal cigar. XXL cigars typically have an impressive average ring gauge of 60, whereas standard cigars max out at 50.

Smoking Duration

Due to their substantial size, giant cigars can extend the smoking time by more than four times, offering up to 180 minutes of pure enjoyment. They don't compromise on quality, as high-end XXL cigars are also made from premium tobacco. 

What Characteristics Do Giant Cigars Have?

• They are longer (up to 55 centimeters) and thicker (up to 4 centimeters) than regular cigars.

• Giant cigars offer a draw resistance ranging from "light" to "strong."  

• The smoking duration can last up to 180 minutes.

• Throughout the entire smoking time, you can enjoy a pleasant smoke flow.
