That's not the ideal cigar to renew one's faith in CC's, if that's what you are after...

Re: Lanceros
 

Lanceros suck. I love Coronas. Lanceros require too much caution and babysitting. I like to enjoy my cigar not worry that it will go out or get hot in the blink of an eye. Plus men look like sissies smoking them. Just my opinions.

Re: Lanceros
 

This past week I discovered the LFD Air Bender Villano. This is one lancero worth searching for. In the past I have tried the Oliva V Lancero but was disappointed in it having a bitter taste. I definitely prefer the smaller ring gauges over the big stinkies.

Re: Lanceros
 

Tatuaje Especiales are highly recommended. La Flor's LG Lanceros are also quite nice. I'm partial to the Lancero in the Davidoff Millenium Blend as well. Enjoyed the LADC's and the San Cristobal from the sampler 10 pack too.

While the Cohiba Lancero, Trinidad Fundadore and Monte Especiale can all be very good, the Partagas Serie du Connaisseur No. 1, while more accurately a delicados or long panatela, is one of my favorite non-domestics in this style, shame they've been discontinued.

All in all it seems there are many more marcas available in this vitola lately than in years past. Highly recommend trying a few if you haven't...

:lr

You and I are the only ones to say we like Coronas better...

Re: Lanceros
 

Spot on, Mike.
Especially about the SdC no. 1.
The Monte Especiale ain't too shabby, either.

Re: Lanceros
 

As far for ncs, Tatuaje Especials are pretty tasty, and may be my favorite lanceros.

As far as ccs, hands down it would have to be ERM GDE. Like a few has mentioned, Partagas SdC #1 are damn good too.

Re: Lanceros
 

Nope, I did also back in post 16.

Re: Lanceros
 

Paul Garmirian Reserva Exclusiva Gran Panatela is righteous!
SHAPE: LANCERO
SIZE: 7 1/2 X 40
STRENGTH: MEDIUM - FULL

Re: Lanceros
 

I've been smoking a lot of those the past few months. I've tried some of the other sizes, but the lances are by far the best of that line IMO.
