That may be true, and it may be somewhat doable, but I have a hard time believing that a flavorful blend can be tweaked to remain consistent between a 5 X 50 robusto and a 7 X 35 lancero.
Yeah there's only so much room inside a cigar wrapper so the ratio has to change some especially in a cigar which employs a significant amount of ligero leaves.
We're going to need a bigger humidor
