Epic La Rubia Lancero – Privada Exclusive (MSRP: $11.00)
You may well have experienced the Epic La Rubia before, but probably never in a lancero vitola. This lancero was crafted by Dean Parsons of Epic Cigars exclusively for Privada at the famed Charles Fairmon Factory located in the Dominican Republic. The blend remains the same as the standard Epic La Rubia – Ecuadorian shade wrapper, Mexican San Andres binder, and Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers. However, the Privada-exclusive 7x40 edition cranks up the intensity from a mild to a near medium-bodied experience, and delivers an entirely new and delightfully transformed flavor profile. This blend was already two-years-aged when it was released in the Privada Cigar Club one year ago to rave reviews. With an additional, third year of age since its initial release, this refined lancero is pristinely matured, and ready to deliver you a rich, creamy, complex, and unexpected Epic experience.
