New World toro cigars measure roughly 140 to 169 mm with a 48 to 57 ring gauge — the 6 x 52 modern standard, and about an hour of smoking.
If the robusto is the format a house proves itself in, the toro is the one it shows off in. The added length gives a Nicaraguan blend space to build, and the wide ring gauge keeps a maduro or broadleaf wrapper from ever running hot. It is the best-selling premium size in most markets, and the catalogue reflects that.
Look for the Aladino Connecticut and Cameroon Toro, Plasencia Cosecha 151 La Tradición, the Camacho Corojo Toro, the Davidoff Grand Cru Toro and toros from Aganorsa Leaf and AVO.
Compare with Cuban toros, drop back to a New World robusto, or go wider with a New World gordo.
