That's funny Bill, I've smoked through over a box of El Centurion's already and I completely disagree. The Robustos seem to develop into a more flavorful ending. The Torpedoes do much the same thing. The Toro's, though, are too long for the blend. Every time I smoke one, it seems like they don't develop to that ending. Maybe I get used to the flavor in that extra inch and I'm not able to taste the build at the end, but I don't enjoy the Toro nearly as much. Different strokes for different folks.
