Lancero appeal....

LiquidChaos66

What is it? I've never had a lancero so I have no idea what they offer. It just seems to me that with a smaller RG there wouldn't be as much smoke time or as much flavor of a 50+ RG stick. Input?

From my experience and from what I have read from others on the net is that you get more flavors out of the wrapper. They are long cigars that are around 7x39 or so.

I think the guys on the forum like them bc it brings out their feminine side. They can hold them with their wrist bent like a lady. LOL j/k

Anther question for me is what makes a cigar a lancero? I've seen some labeled as lanceros but what exactly makes them one? Is there a specific length and RG that it has to be a lancero?

I believe it just has to do with dimensions. Most average around 7x40 or so.

The "classic" Lancero size is 7" x 38 rg. However like with most things marcas (manufacturers) tweak and bend to fit to their own ideas and designs. So slightly shorter, slightly longer, slightly skinnier or fatter can all still be called a Lancero by any and many marcas.

Morgan the 7"x40 you are thinking of was the Drew Estate L40 liga Privada Lancero. Jonathan Drew even admitted that since it was a 40 rg that it was techincally not realllly a Lancero since it was too far, but he wanted it a little fatter so he could add another leaf or two to the blend. Either way I could care less hahah still tasted incredible and it was close enough to a Lancero that I had zero complaints hahaha

All great info! It all makes sense too. I might have to get a few lanceros and try them out. I don't think I've had a stick lower than a 50 RG. Lol then again I don't have a tool of any sort to measure them. lol are there RG measurement tools?

Great info Irish! Lots of good tidbits in there.

"get roughly 70-75% of the flavor of the cigar from the wrapper" This is generally acknowledged to be a myth.

It's at least got to be 71-76%.
