Team Cigar Review: Epic Habano Lancero
The transition of the cedar becoming sharper and spicier as the cigar progressed was both unique and tasty. This, surrounded by a cast of nuttiness and black pepper made for an overall good tasting cigar.

In a market where there is quite a lack of thin ring gauge cigars (especially Connecticut broadleaf ones), this one provides enough uniqueness that warrants a must try.
A beefed up version producing greater intensities. The mouth watering body with oily cinnamon combined with deep spice and earth really hit its stride. I enjoyed the cigar quite a bit and am looking forward to smoking more of these down the road.
This is the profile where MBombay really shines for me. The unique wood notes along with some cream and transitions between black pepper and cinnamon.
This is another nice addition to the Southern Draw portfolio and a good lancero is always a treat. I'll definitely be enjoying more of these and can easily recommend this to others.
This is the Recluse that I know based on sampling a small portion of its portfolio; cigars focused on balance, full flavors and great construction. The loud voice but small population of lancero fanboys will love this one, and is not to be missed.
The Throw Down is a competition between the online cigar communities; Cigar Federation and Reddit. Each competitor worked with BLTC to determine their community’s final cigar blend. Consumers will be able to vote for which blend they liked the best and it will be crowned the winner.
The H-Town Lancero will be presented in a 7 x 38 Lancero and will be packaged in 10 count boxes. The blend features a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, Brazilian Mata Fina binder, and Nicaraguan fillers and is blended by Drew Estate Master Blender Willy Herrera.
A cigar with a dry and earthy profile, consistently fairly strong nicotine throughout the entire smoking experience. This cigar isn't for the faint hearted. If you enjoy a bold cigar, this is not one to pass up.
The lancero was actually rolled at the same time as the other sizes. With limited release, it was kind of kept under wraps. Most people didn't really know the size existed.
