A circle has a lower circumference to area ratio. With a rectangular cigar of similar fill area, you will have more wrapper to surround it.....

Stated another way, given the same cross sectional area, it takes more binder & wrapper to surround a rectangle than a circle.

Theoretically. Whether it is significant enough to make difference in taste.. ?

A larger RG box press cigar is more comfortable to smoke.
