cigarillo ring gauge for cigarette holder?

I am considering getting some premium cigarillos to use in a cigarette holder, and was wondering if anyone knows the accurate ring gauge of a cigarette. The cigar tobacco filtered small cigars, the size of cigarettes, don't appeal to me that much.

    I can't speak for all brands/blends since I've only tried a few different ones but I found that the ones I tried had varying ring guages. I'm afraid this will turn out to be just a search on your part to determine the guage. 

    Pardon me for saying so, but I think buying any cigar/cigarillo based on the ring guage rather than on what it tastes like is just a bit counterproductive.....  B)

    if your aiming at those "Alta Gracia" "erin go blah" or any of the like which size in at 3.5x23 then they should fit any american style cig holder. most american cigs are 22ga or smaller.

    Just remember that cigar rings are in 64ths of an inch. Find a smoker, bum a smoke. Measure it.
