Black Serie II Lancero

Same gold-diamond bling, totally different attitude. Box-pressed and cloaked in a toothy Mexican San Andrés maduro, the Black Serie II loads a Nicaraguan binder-and-filler core that fires off dark cocoa, leather, earthy sweetness, and a red-pepper jab that never quite lets go.

Medium-full. Find a comfy chair, pour something barrel-aged, and watch that gold diamond ride the ash all the way down.
