Far Eastern Standard

Cigar Dojo’s penchant for Asian culture and Caldwell’s progressive character have been mashed, blended, and fused, materializing in the form of a 7″ x 40 lancero known as Far Eastern Standard. Paying tribute to the original Eastern Standard cigar—a longtime favorite of Cigar Dojo—the Far Eastern Standard showcases the hand-drawn likeness of Emperor Meiji. Far Eastern Standard marks the first-ever usage of the cult-favorite lancero vitola for a Cigar Dojo release—a format that is often praised for offering a concentrated and elegant smoking character. In addition, the thin ring gauge allows for added influence from the blend’s wrapper ingredient—a Colorado-shade Nicaraguan Habano leaf. This leaf is backed by an Indonesian binder and fillers of both Nicaragua (Habano) and the Dominican Republic (Piloto Cubano).
