    It's not that I don't like lanceros, I've only had a couple and really haven't learned to smoke them. What I mean by that is I think they call for a different cadence than a 50rg.

    I noticed you BUMS do Lancero February, so I plan on breaking a few out here real soon.

    I was given some guidance by a few bums on how to get the most from them. From their input and what I have experienced myself, smoking them too fast can really ruin things fast.

    Love my lanceros, but CG's aren't far behind.

    I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

    Corona or robusto. Had a couple lanceros lately and really like them for a longer smoke... like them a lot more than Churchills. The cadence seems akin to smoking a pipe, which makes it a natural choice for me.
    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

    It’s hard to say. Lanceros are easier to f up when rolling, so if it’s a brand I know and trust, Lancero. Otherwise Corona. CGs are a favorite size of mine in general so it’s not like you can go wrong.

    You friggin enablers will have me buying everything!! LOL

    But seriously, I haven't done many lances and will probably get them but as always interested in what my Brothers/Sisters have to say.

    And as some have said, lances and coronas need.to be smoked slowly. A robo usually takes me an hour and a half anyway.

    What I truly enjoy about lanceros is the Wrapper, Binder, Filler counterbalance compared to other sizes. The larger the size the more the filler takes over the flavor profile. Just my .02 which is really worth anything. ;-)
