Cohiba Lanceros - 25 cigars (packs of 5)

Product Review (submitted on July 16, 2014):

Well, firstly I've got to thank the professional team at the Cigar Terminal for their EXCELLENT service quality and highest quality of products.

Allow me to let you in on the situation:

I ordered a box of Lanceros in June '14 - last month that is. When I received the parcel and opened the box, I was greeted with a lovely box of cigars and the jackpot notion was : the box was stamped Oct. 2009!!

This meant I actually didn't have to age the stogies at all as they were already almost 5 years old!!!! How fortunate can one get really? Well, with Cigar Terminal, this is their daily work routine - providing clientele with the highest quality products.

Well, let's get down to the review. After leaving the stogies in the humidor for a period of a week following their receipt, I lit one up.

1st third:

The stogie opened up with aromas of creamy coffee and nutmegs. The body was light to medium. The cigar sported a fantastic after taste with absolutely no rough edges - smooth as the proverbial silk!

2nd third:

The body has become fuller now at medium and the aroma is delicious - with cedar, coffee, cream and a whiff of dried peaches or apricots as I couldn't really tell which.

Final third:

Lanceros is now full-bodied. Fruits and coffee are way way back and the wood and sweet Tobacco are all in your face. There's a hint of cinnamon, too, somewhere but hard to discern. I eventually nubbed this cigar. IT WAS A MEMORABLE SMOKE, REALLY! The good news is I've got 24 more waiting my special attention...

I do recommend this vitola and cigar as it provided me with relentless and continuous bombardment of beautiful aromas and experience lasting 1 hour and 45 minutes - a true feat to achieve.
