HVC Cigars has announced the introduction of the 500th Anniversary Lancero, a new vitola scheduled to debut at the 2026 Premium Cigar Association Trade Show (PCA26) in New Orleans.
The release marks the first time HVC has produced a Lancero format within its portfolio, expanding the company’s 500th Anniversary line.
The 500th Anniversary line was originally introduced to commemorate the founding of Havana in 1519, and this release extends that line into a new vitola. The cigar is presented in a 7 1/2 x 38 Lancero format and will be produced in a limited quantity of 500 boxes, with 10 cigars per box.
The HVC 500th Anniversary Lancero has a suggested retail price of $12.80 per cigar before applicable taxes.
The cigar will debut at PCA26, with an estimated shipping date around Father’s Day 2026.
