Roberto Duran Premium Cigars (Duran Cigars) will unveil the “Texas Tactical Lancero” under the Neya F8 brand at the IPCPR show in Vegas.
The new Lancero measures 7 x 40 and comes in a beautiful Maduro Corojo Ecuadorian wrapper from Fincas Azan, the plantation of Duran Cigars. The filler and binder are Nicaraguan with the ligero Esteli clearly given the full impact in the flavor typical of the Neya F8 line.
Roberto Pelayo Duran, owner of Duran Cigars, said: “The Texas Tactical Lancero is a very exciting project. The suggestion came from Texas, from colleagues, retailers and consumers of the Neya F8 that were wondering how that F8 flavor would translate in a Lancero size. Once production started in Nicatabaco, we noticed that some of our fellow cigars manufacturers in Esteli were stopping by the factory more often than usual to pick a fuma of the new Lancero. This is when we knew the Texas Tactical Lancero will be a very special F8 and much welcomed by our customers. We look forward to sharing it with our retail family.”
The Texas Tactical Lancero comes in a ceder cabinet with 15 rounds sporting a pig tail and double black and gold bands making a very nice contrast with the maduro color of the wrapper. The 15 count box was chosen in reference of a 15 round magazine.
Miguel Schoedel, National Sales Manager at Duran Cigars commented on the new released: “I am a huge fan of the Lancero format. Roberto and I have been playing around the idea of adding this vitola to our line-up for some time now. I believe we have chosen the right blend. I am very proud to share this labor of love with our friends in Las Vegas. ”
