At the 2025 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show, Foundation Cigar Company will introduce a lancero size to The Wise Man Corojo and Maduro lines.
Both lancero sizes measure 7 x 40 and are presented in 20-count boxes. The Wise Man Corojo Lancero is a 100% Nicaraguan puro, featuring a Corojo ’99 wrapper over Nicaragua tobaccos from Estelí and Jalapa. Meanwhile, The Wise Man Maduro Lancero features a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper over a San Andres binder and Nicaraguan fillers. Production comes from My Father Cigars S.A. in Estelí, Nicaragua.
“The Lancero has always held a special place in my heart—it was one of my grandfather’s favorite sizes, and one I’ve admired since I began blending cigars,” said Nicholas Melillo, Founder and Master Blender of Foundation Cigar Company, in a press release. “This vitola puts the wrapper on full display, allowing the richness and nuance of both the Corojo and Maduro blends to shine in a truly refined way.”
The 2025 PCA Trade Show opens April 12 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Foundation plans to ship the Wise Man Lancero vitolas in the summer or fall of 2025.
