Stogie Road Cigars to Release Ediciòn XXXV Lancero in November
Next month, Stogie Road Cigars will be releasing a limited edition lancero to its Edición XXXV line, which debuted in March.
Like the original 6 1/2 x 52 toro, the lancero comes dressed in a barber pole wrapper made from Ecuadorian habano maduro and Ecuadorian Connecticut shade leaves. Underneath that is a Honduran habano binder and fillers from Honduras’ Copan region and ligero from Nicaragua’s Jalapa region.
It will be priced at $10 per cigar and offered in 10-count boxes, with 500 boxes being produced at the Tabacalera Kafie factory in Danlí, Honduras.
“I have always loved the lancero vitola; it’s classic and full of flavor,” said Kerry Horney of Stogie Road Cigars. “This release truly represents my passion. I believe that the quality of tobacco and the blend can only be appreciated and realized if the cigar has impeccable construction.”
The company is currently taking orders for the cigar, with delivery slated for mid-November.
Shortly after this article was published, halfwheel was informed that the company has changed its name from El Viajante to Stogie Road Cigars.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury, the G-League's Valley Suns, and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
