• Cigar ShapeLonsdaleThe standard Lonsdale is 6.5 inches long by a 40 to 44 ring gauge.
• Cigar SectionBox-Pressed (Square)A box pressed cigar is a cigar that has a square shape. Originally, this shape came from the practice of packing round cigars tightly in cardboard boxes which are then compacted using a manual press. The cigars are thus pressed into each other and become a “squarish” or semi-square shape. Today, cigar makers use square shaped molds or a wooden trunk press for their box pressed cigars, achieving a more defined square section.
• Cigar Length7″This cigar is 7 inches long, or 177.8 mm.
