I've got a few questions pertaining to box pressed cigars. Maybe Jon@CAO can help me out. First, is the ring gauge measured before or after the cigars are box pressed? For example, would a 50 r.g. box pressed cigar technically be smaller than a 50 r.g. round cigar. Also, does box pressing do anything more than just change the feel and appearance? Does it do anything for the burn or taste?
Thanks, just being curious george here
