The Herrera Estelí Connecticut Broadleaf and Habano Lanceros will return to shelves this summer.

Drew Estate has announced that both cigars will ship to stores in July. The details remain the same as in previous years, both cigars measure 7 x 38, both have an MSRP of $194.24 per box of 15, roughly $12.95 per cigar.

The Herrera Estelí Habano Lancero uses the original Herrera Estelí blend, meaning an Ecuadorian habano wrapper over a Honduran binder and Nicaraguan fillers and debuted in April 2014. The Herrera Estelí Connecticut Broadleaf Lancero uses a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper, Brazilian mata fina binder, and Nicaraguan filler, it debuted in September 2020.

“The Lancero is generally my favorite size, but that’s especially true for the Herrera Estelí Habano and Herrera Estelí Connecticut Broadleaf cigars,” said Willy Herrera, master blender of Drew Estate, in a press release. “Both blends are made from wrapper leaves that are rich and bold. The Lancero size allows the smoking characteristics of those beautiful leaves—especially their nuances—to truly grab your attention.”
