Never even heard of it -- hope I didn't miss the cigar of a lifetime. Enjoy those who have some left, savor them :-)

yes sir...they were awesome. I loved the robusto. If only there were a lancero, although I bet the blend necessitated a larger ring gauge.

There was but it was limited to a lancero sampler . Doesn't look like they have one in the works for the re-release.

Was the Special S any close? I understand they stopped the Centurion due to some copyright infringement.

They were great cigars...I enjoyed them when I had the opportunity to smoke a few! I actually just sold the lancero collection that DPG made http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showthread.php?t=59989 I would say though the only problem I was running into with the lancero collection, because this wasnt the only one I had, was that sometimes the cigars were plugged! I was able to grab a bunch of these of a BOTL on here and litterally all of them were plugged to the point it wasnt worth smoking!

Great smokes though IMO

Will have to try one of the new ones when they are released. As I can't say that I've ever had one. Weird thing is that I am big Pepin fan...not sure how I missed these.

The lanceros were far better than the robusto. I doubt I would like either much anymore however since making the CC switch.

Yup, I remember I bought and smoked a JJ Maddie Lance at a B&M and it was the worst plugged cigar I have ever run into.

In my mind, re-makes never live up to the Originals.
It's not the same tobacco. Prime example Tat Elo 1&3 (remakes)

They were blended stronger mind you, but just not the same
cigar. (too strong if you ask me.)
