About this cigar
Protocol's Red Probable Cause is a lancero that demands attention from the moment you remove it from the cedar. The blend pairs a Connecticut broadleaf maduro wrapper with an aged Dominican binder and filler, delivering the complexity that discerning smokers expect from a true lancero format. At 7.25 inches with a modest ring gauge, this cigar's slender profile concentrates flavor rather than diffusing it, revealing layers of cocoa, leather, and subtle spice that develop across a measured smoking experience of roughly 90 minutes. The maduro wrapper contributes natural sweetness and a dense, elegant character without the heaviness of larger ring gauges. Expect a medium body that never feels thin or underdeveloped, with a draw that remains consistent through all three acts. The finish is clean and lingering, with a peppery note that emerges on the retrohale. This is a cigar for the discerning retail customer or lounge regular who appreciates construction and nuance over spectacle. The 10-count box format makes it an easy addition to your walk-in selection, and the lancero's growing appeal among serious smokers means it won't languish on your shelves.
