Olive V Lancero...a newbs perspective

[skibumdc]

I posted a thread a bit ago as to why the Lancero was one of the hardest cigars to roll.
The response I got was with regard to it's length and smaller ring gauge make getting the roll difficult in order to achieve the perfect draw.

I DO think you simply got a tight cigar and not necessarily indicative of the cigar blend in general.

Try another from a different box or try a different vitola and post again.

I've never had this cigar so I'm curious about ALL the reviews.

Sorry to hear about the bad experience, I haven't had any draw issues with the larger RG Oliva V's but I have had some burn issues (which seemed to fix themselves after some rest). I wouldn't write it off completely, maybe get one and let is rest for a long while as this is a pretty good stick IMHO. But if number two doesn't do it for you, stay away forever.

I enjoyed the V Lancero I smoked, draw was pretty good, I guess it's hit and miss.
