Jake Wyatt Lithium Lancero

I’m a bit disappointed with Lithium lancero. I enjoyed the toro so much, that I was expecting a similar experience. Instead, I got a sub-par experience with each lancero smoked for this review. Burn issues plagued each one, except for the third one, the ash was overly flakey, and the first third seems directionless. All of these issues caused by 3 of the 4 being underfilled. The first cigar refused to stay lit and was unsmokable. The others I smoked for this review, while smokable, had burn issue after burn issue: uneven burns, canoeing, and needed multiple touchups. The only exception to this was the third one. The ash was never anything close to compact. The first third was overly salty and couldn’t really keep a flavor profile compared to the other thirds. That’s the bad. The good is that the flavors found in the final two-thirds is amazing. Creamy, salty, sweet, and savory. The retrohale is the star of the show. When the Lithium is good, it’s really good. When it’s bad, it’s very bad and very underfilled.
