Tasting notes

The Epic Gold Lancero is a true work of Cuban-Ecuadorian art, showcasing an elegant Ecuadorian wrapper that boasts a refined texture in hand. With dimensions of 177.8 mm (7") in length and a diameter of 15.9 mm (⅝"), this cigar makes a strong impression at first glance, featuring a meticulously finished wrapper that promises a sophisticated tasting experience.

Upon lighting, this cigar reveals a rather simple yet revealing bouquet, with notes of wood and a hint of sweetness enveloped in a creamy cloud of smoke. The aromas quickly evolve, with the first puffs opening up to touches of chocolate and walnut, bringing an interesting and soothing complexity to the palate.

On the palate, the progression skillfully lays out the balance between sweetness and lightness. The aromatic development is characterized by gentle flavors that unfold over the three thirds, transitioning from lightly toasted wood to spicy and earthy notes. While it may seem a bit discreet in intensity, each draw reveals a certain harmony and coherence, although some may find it a touch too light.

The finish offers a pleasant sensation, with a medium length. The residual sweetness and a subtle bitterness echo the initial aromas, all blending into a correct balance between strength and sweetness that provides a bittersweet satisfaction. The Epic Gold Lancero stands out for its ability to delight the smoker in a moment of contemplation or sharing.

This cigar is ideally suited for an evening tasting, accompanied by a robust black coffee or a glass of smooth whisky. This will allow you to explore its aromas and discover the richness of its woody and chocolatey notes.
