April 9, 2025 Inspector X 3 min read

Quesada & Casa Magna Unveil Lancero Experience LE Sampler at PCA 2025

Fans of the elegant lancero vitola and the craftsmanship of Quesada Cigars are in for a treat. At the 2025 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show in New Orleans, Quesada and Casa Magna unveiled a unique and highly limited sampler: the Lancero Experience LE. Set to ship by the end of April, this 20-count collection showcases ten different blends, each in a slender and refined 7 x 40 lancero format.

The sampler is a tribute to Quesada’s deep heritage and innovation in cigar making, combining some of their most celebrated blends with rare vitola presentations. While none of the blends are entirely new, six of the lanceros have never been sold before, offering something fresh even for seasoned Quesada aficionados.

Each box contains two of each of the following lanceros:
• Casa Magna Colorado
• Casa Magna Connecticut*
• Casa Magna Liga F*
• Casa Magna Maduro
• Casa Magna XV*
• Quesada 40th Anniversary*
• Quesada 50th Anniversary*
• Quesada 1974
• Quesada Reserva Privada Barber Pole*
• Quesada Selección España
*Newly released in this size
(Note: The 1974 and Selección España were previously released as 7 x 38 lanceros.)

Only 300 samplers are being produced, with an MSRP of $273 per sampler, or $13.65 per cigar. Availability is exclusive to retailers who place orders during PCA 2025, making this a highly sought-after collector’s item.

A Tribute to Craft and Family

Raquel Quesada, co-owner of Quesada Cigars, shared the inspiration behind this project: “The Lancero vitola is an extraordinary size with an aura of excellence which represents special memories of moments shared with my sister Patricia throughout our journey in the cigar industry. This LE Collection embodies over 50 years of expertise and commitment to cigar manufacturing, offering a truly exceptional experience.”

From the bold and earthy Liga F to the creamy Connecticut and the richly layered Barber Pole, the sampler delivers a broad flavour spectrum within the slender complexity of the lancero format—beloved by many for its finesse and flavour intensity.

Whether you’re a lancero devotee or simply eager to experience Quesada’s finest blends in a new light, the Lancero Experience LE offers a masterclass in blending, presentation, and heritage—all in one elegantly curated box.
