Horseradish in a cigar. Nothing more nothing less than a bunch of heathens. Now I have been saying it for a while, a steak and Horseradish pie, that would be something.  

The magicos, initially. I still have some as far back as 2011. 07 08 09 I remember them being rich thick chewy smokes with a heavy draw they were something PSP magicos. The body does flatten out to me over time 5 +. I will have one today...actually will post in the daily smoke, FOH a week in pictures.

Full bodied magicos...not any more

The Boli RC rates as medium body, full flavor to me if that counts?

None of them.

Back in the day 1999 I had only been smoking cigars two or three years. I was working in a cigar shop/lounge when the first VSG hit the market. At that point in my Cigar smoking it was one strong ass cigar. But I haven’t smoked one since then, so I couldn’t say that now. But everyone has a tolerance for some people Cohiba is a very full body Cigar.

Magicos would be highest on that CC list at medium full for me; but not nearly as full as the VSG or Padron 1964 maduro (I’ve never had the #44 version)

I remember Cubans being way stronger in the 90s

I haven't found any Cuban really full bodied as dump you on your arse full bodied like an Indiana Ortez psycho I smoked a few years ago. After that all Cubans were mild to medium.

At first glace the magico stood out to me as the 'most' full bodied. But certainly not in regards to the other smokes they have on there that I've tried. More of a roasted coffee bean and dark chocolate flavor than 'strong'. The BRC is laughable imo. The most recent examples I've had 19-20 have some nice smooth cream hits on em.

I’ve smoked more PSD4’s than any other cigar and can’t say I recall “horseradish”. I am also confused by the tasting note “flint” for the BRC. Its not even an edible thing, and tasting notes like that just make reviews unbearable.

So the Cubans listed in that article are, in alphabetical order; Bolivar Royal Corona, Cohiba Maduro 5 Magicos, Partagas Serie D No.4 and Ramon Allones Specially Selected. I've had some 'fuller' Ramon Allones Specially Selected in the past, but no...not on any consistent basis.

I know the original question in this thread was whether we found any Cuban cigars listed in this Cigar Aficionado article full-bodied; however, among the Non-Cuban options I can opine  that the Padron Family Reserve No.44 Maduro is not as full-bodied (well, at least for me) as other Maduro options within the Padron 1926 Series or 1964 Anniversary Series. I mean, after all, Padron themselves mention that the tobacco that goes into Family Reserve cigars are twice as old as the tobacco that goes into the Padron 1926 and 1964 lines.

I can confidently confirm that the E.P. Carrillo Pledge Sojourn is definitely full-bodied!

For a publication that often steers away from Cubans, I found the inclusion of this many in this particular article a strange take. 
 

And overall the answer is not particularly, especially when compared to VSG and such.
