A pretty dang good lancero
I bought a 5 pack of this lancero because I love lanceros and I like the Le Bejue 1922 from My Father. I think this lancero is in my top 10 of lanceros—more like top 6. It is a smooth smoke without being too mild. No one note jumps out at you, but it isn’t bland either. It’s subtle. I got some cream on the first third with a bit of white pepper early one that stayed with it to the end. I very light hint of leather deeper into the smoke. There is a solid oak note on the last 2/3rds. Lanceros are quickly becoming my favorite shape. The problem is some of my favorites smokes in this shape are only available in maker’s samplers boxes with various shapes, but this one and the Caldwell Long Live the King (MSIJ) are both available in boxes, and I am a fan of both of these cigars.
