Best Lanceros?

Oliva V, Illusione HL (regular, madura, or candela), big fan of Los Blancos Nine too. 
I bet an Opus X would be delicious in that vitola too, but I've never had the chance to try one.

I agree w/ Oliva V, La Aurora 107, Opus X, and HL (maddie), but I also liked the Decade (yeah, yeah, here comes the RP haters :tongueout )

I'm not a huge Lancero smoker. Not because of the taste but because I'm just more of a toro size guy. Of the ones I've had and enjoy it would be...
Opus X PT
Oliva V
El Trufidor
I buy to bomb the rest :razz:

I have not really been a fan of the Lancero, but I did have a Illusione HL and it was pretty good. So much so that I can no longer say I don't care for Lanceros...that says something doesn't it :dunno:. I can't wait to try the HL Maduro I have resting :drool:. I hear rumors that the Candela is great also, couldn't tell you personally.

ANY line of cigars that you really like ... if they make a lancero, it's a must try. Period.
In some cases, the lancero will be far better than any other vitola (like the new El Triunfador blend or the Rocky Patel Fusion by AJ Fernandez). Other times it will be the same great flavors, just more concentrated (like the My Father).
It seems that pretty often the lancero will have less strength (i.e. over all nicotine punch) than thicker vitolas (like the Oliva V), which I assume is because there's just less room for the stronger leaves in such a skinny cigar.
