I have to second the Oliva V lancero & My Father #4. Very Very Very nice sticks.Quote:

As was already mentioned, I rarely if ever have an issue with the construction on a lancero, which is likely due to the skill required to roll the vitola.
A few of my favorites:
-Caldwell Long Live the King "My Style is Jalapeno"
-Caldwell Eastern Standard Silk Road
-262 Paradigm
-DPG Blue
-El Triunfador (OR)
-Tatuaje Black Petit Lancero
-My Father #4
-Tatuaje Tattoo (OR)
-Don Carlos
-Casa Fuente
There are more I'm forgetting, but all of the above have been stellar smokes.
Regius Exclusivo USA are also a fantastic lance.
Those are some great lists guys. I can't wait to try some of them. One of the B&M's that I visit on occasion when I can is gonna put a sampler together for me. Some of the ones he's gonna put in it you guys have named. It sounds like he's putting together a good one for me.
Thanks guys!!

This is the sampler he put together for me. The blank spot was one I asked him to take out so he's gonna fill that spot with a surprise stick.
How do you all think he did?

ABSOLUTELY! get some ASAP :) I'm pretty new to this myself and I find lancero's to be some of my faves. I believe you get a better wrapper to filer ratio and it reflects on the taste. Try it, you won't regretQuote:

Fast forward to about 0:45. I can't make it start at that point for some reason. Unless you want to listen to the schpiel...
Only ones I've had off that list was the Herrera and Tat Black both very good. I almost grabbed a single action tonight, but felt like it needed more rest just got them a week or 2 ago. Be sure to let us know what you think as you work through them.
Looks like a nice sampler to me!.....Quote:
