Cavalier Genève Cigars announced that the cigars known as White Series Lancero, White Series Salomones, Black II Lancero and Black II Salomones, which were the entire Cavalier Small Batch category, have all been fully discontinued.
In exchange, the Small Batch Program has been entirely revisited and will now look as follows:
A new Blend to celebrate a New Beginning:
Cavalier Genève Cigars has announced that the newly revisited Small Batch will showcase one Lancero and one Salomon. Even tho the blend is fully reviewed and new, the initial point of it’s creation was the White Series blend, which is where Cavalier started. This decision is to be true to the origin of the company, and to the one blend that to this day, still is the spearhead of the brand, all while providing a unique experience, specific to these two sizes.
“Over the last few years, we worked hard to constantly keep those extremely intricate vitolas constantly available, which was, as I believe today a mistake. We ended up completely disregarding the uniqueness and skill level required to achieve this kind of products. We decided it was time to scratch everything and go back to the basics.” Said Sebastien Decoppet, founder of Cavalier Genève Cigars. “The Small Batch will now be reborn, respectfully, through two restricted productions yearly. There will now only be one Lancero and one Salomon.”
“We truly want to highlight the skillset of the selected rollers and honor them as well as concentrate on these very special productions, in a way that makes more sense and aligns with our true beliefs. Dedication to the craft, the art of making cigars and delivering something truly sensational should be at the center of each creation. Cigars, from our perspective, should be more like art, each and every one of the creations being beautifully unique.” Said Sebastien Decoppet.
