Cavalier Genève Small Batch — A Lancero and Salomónes Reboot Now Available for Pre-Order Mid-October
Posted on October 02 2026
Two of the most demanding shapes in cigar making are getting the slow, careful treatment they deserve. The new Small Batch Series retires the previous four-size lineup in favour of a fresh blend offered only as a Lancero and a Salomónes, rolled in deliberately limited runs.
Wrapper: Honduran
Binder: Nicaraguan, Paraguayan
Filler: Nicaraguan, Paraguayan
Strength: Medium-Plus
Vitolas: Lancero (7 x 38) — $67.32 / 5 Pack, $269.28 / Box of 20; Salomónes (7 x 50/58) — $86.19 / 5 Pack, $172.38 / Box of 10
Ships: Mid-October 2026 (Pre-Order)
Founder Sébastien Decoppet has said that chasing constant availability of these intricate formats came at the cost of the skill they require. Production at Fábrica Centroamericana de Tabaco in Danlí, Honduras now puts precision ahead of volume.
Expect the slender Lancero to focus the blend into cedar, toasted almond and white pepper. The tapered Salomónes opens on cream and earth before building toward dark caramel and leather in the final third.
