The Cohiba Lancero is Castro's personal favorite, and was made exclusively for him before being released to the general market in 1982. This especiale sized Cohiba burns slow making it a perfect sit-back-and-relax Cuban cigar.

Very earthy flavors resonate throughout this long yet small ring gauge Cohiba. A consistent and slightly lighter flavored Cohiba cigar. Very consistent feedback from experienced and novice cigar smokers cites this Cohiba as a balanced flavored cigar. The flavors of wood and spice are still present as in cigars like the Cohiba Robusto but they're more muted and smooth than some of the other cigars produced under the Cohiba name.
