Gordo

/ GOR-doh /
Vitolas & ShapesSpanish
Definition
A thick parejo of 60 ring gauge or more, most often 6 to 6 1/2 inches long. Shops also call it a sixty, and Cuban production uses the format only in limited editions.
Why it matters
A high filler-to-wrapper ratio mutes the wrapper's contribution and burns cool, so the same blend reads smoother and more filler-driven here than in a corona.
In context
"The gordo tastes like a different cigar - you lose the wrapper almost entirely."
