Crowned Heads is proud to announce the Four Kicks Capa Especlal Lancero LE 2022, the first lancero it has produced since the Four Kicks Maduro Lancero in 2018.
The lancero was a vitola that was first rolled at the El Laguito factory in Havana, Cuba, in the 1960’s with the creation of the Cohiba brand, and soon thereafter became known as the Lâguito No. 1 throughout cigar factories in Cuba. Today, the lancero retains a reputation among cigar enthusiasts as on of the most elegant vitolas.
The blend is described as:
- Wrapper – Ecuadorian Sumatra
- Binder – Nicaraguan
- Filler – Nicaraguan and Dominican Republic
Crowned Heads co-founder, Jon Huber comments:
”We’re extremely excited to bring the Capa Especial Lancero to market. The lancero is such a. storied vitola and it’s been absent from our portfolio for over 4 years; it’s an exquisite expression of the Four Kicks Capa Especial blend.”
