I'm still a newbie. An old newbie. A really inquisitive old newbie. Whenever I 'get into' a new area of interest I generally research the hell out of it so I can know as much as I can absorb about it.
So, here's a question I haven't yet seen addressed in the forum:
Suppose we start with two cigars of the same brand and tobacco composition, same length, same RH, everything identical except the ring guage. Let's say we have a lonsdale and a churchill and we hook them up to a laboratory-style 'puffer' machine which will take the same number of puffs at the same frequency, the same volume of puff, etc. Everything identical except for ring guage.
Here's the question: will one smoke last longer than the other? Is 'length of smoke' a function of tobacco mass? If not, what's your best guess as to what it is?
Any input you may care to share will be appreciated. Thanks a heap.
Marty
