Burn time for cigars

What are the charts that give an estimated time. For how long it should take you to smoke a cigar. Based off of, is foot to head, Or foot to mid point, or foot to label?

    @shortstackz is absolutely correct. In addition to his advice, here's a link that may be of help to you:

    In the chart shown in the Holt's article, for example, it lists the burn time of a robusto to be 45 minutes. Not for me. I often get an hour and 45 minutes out of a robusto. Short puffs every 45 (gee, the number '45' seems to be a magic number here 🤣) seconds or so keeps the cigar lit, with short "sipping" puffs providing the most flavorful smoke, IMO. YMMV

    Cheers!
