Tatuaje Black Petite Lancero 6" * 38

The Tatuaje Black Petit Lancero is a rich, sweet cigar by Pete Johnson that first made its debut as a limited release and is now being produced regularly for the brand. The panatela cigar, made by Pepin Garcia in Nicaragua, is a refreshing addition to a market that demands bigger and bigger cigars each year. The Black Label Petit Lancero, as it is also called, starts out spicy and then transitions to deliver a complex array of coffee, chocolate, roasted nuts, caramel and wood flavors.
