Old Man from Old Man and the C set
 
Smoking the lancer Old Man from this El Triunfador release. The set includes this cigar and a Culebra in the same size.

If memory serves El Triunfador used to have a lancero and I loved it until it was discontinued.

My high hopes for this one were well received so far as I am immediately reminded of the past. I'd say this is as good but lighter and different than the Tat Black lancer.

If you can find them buy em up boys.

One of my favorites! Totally agree with the comparison to the Tat Black PL.

The OR El Triunfadors are amazing. :dr :dr My favorite stick from Pete. Not a fan of the new release.

One of the few sticks that gives me a nic kick anymore. Sumbish sneaks up on ya. Great smoke, which reminds me, I should break into the few we have left at work.

Just to be clear this is a current release that was just introduced. So you can get more if you look around. :D

ahhh
I didnt realize they re re-released them, is it the original blend ?

The new one is an all-Nicaraguan leaf center rolled in lush natural Ecuadorian Habano wrapper leaves - a radical departure from the original Connecticut Broadleaf-wrapped blend released in 2008.

Both are great, I wish they hadn't changed the blend though.

Probably going to be in the market for these. One of the better N/Cs I have had in a while.
