Default Lanceros

Love or Hate?

For me as I delve deeper into the hobby I find more and more I like thinner ring gauges. Right now I am waiting for some Mi Dominicana Lanceros , Oliva Serie V lanceros , and some Padron Lanceros to come in. I got 2 boxes of each.

Had the Serie V before.

Anything Padron is good with me so I am almost 100% postitive I will love the lanceros.

The Mi Dominicana is going to be new to me but based on indie reviews im sure I will like them.


So tell me about your good / bad experiences with the Lancero Size?

Most of the best NCs I have smoked in the last few years have been lanceros.

Love the CC ones as well.

The Cain F lancero and the Cain Daytona lancero are amazing cigars. I've had 3-4 padrons and I was really impressed. The Tats are amazing as well.

When I smoked NCs I used to seek out Lanceros before any other vitola.
With CCs I love lanceros but there are far less to choose from (Current production) and they are typically expensive, but I do love them.

Love 'em...just have to slow down with them though. They can get hot really quick. Take your time with them.

I'll go against the grain a bit and say while I prefer a smaller ring gauge I like the corona size more...

Lanceros are good... Coronas are good... Smoke what ya like... more importantly... like what you smoke...

Don't get why these things aren't more popular in the production sense. I know lots of us here love them so I could only imagine the rest of the smokers do, too. Used to be some fantastic CC lanceros, but they're slowly fading...

This is particularly a problem if you are used to smoking larger ring gauges.

If I remember to slow down then a lancero is a great cigar. However, since I suffer CRS sometimes I forget to slow down...

The further along I get in this trip, the smaller the ring gauge gets as my favorites. Lanceros figure prominently in the mix.

I have that problem. When I first started smoking I thought bigger must be better so I was always smoking the bigger ring gauges. So even though that was years ago I still have to tell myself to slow the heck down when smoking a lancero or corona.

As to the question of the thread, I'm with Rob: I do like lanceros but prefer a corona.
