Indulge in the epitome of cigar craftsmanship with our meticulously curated Lancero Sampler Collection. This exclusive set features five distinguished lanceros from renowned manufacturers, each showcasing the exceptional skill and artistry required to create this challenging vitola. Curated by the founder of TripleCap.Co Shon.
What Makes Lanceros Special
The lancero format (typically 7-7.5 inches with a 38-40 ring gauge) is considered the true test of a cigar maker’s skill. Their slender profile requires precise construction to ensure perfect draw and burn, making them among the most labor-intensive cigars to produce. The higher wrapper-to-filler ratio delivers concentrated flavors that highlight the wrapper’s character, offering a sophisticated smoking experience that true aficionados cherish.

Smoking Tips
To fully enjoy these exceptional lanceros, use a small flat cut or the tiniest punch on the cap to prevent unraveling. Light with a soft flame rather than a torch to protect the delicate construction. Take slow, gentle draws and pace yourself to appreciate the complex flavor transitions these masterpieces offer. Pair with light scotch, wine, or coffee to complement rather than overpower the nuanced flavors.
This exclusive sampler represents the pinnacle of cigar craftsmanship, offering a rare opportunity to experience some of the finest and most limited lanceros available today. Each cigar has been carefully selected to provide a distinctive smoking experience that showcases the unique characteristics of its blend and the exceptional skill of its makers.
