Olivia V Lancero
Olivia Cain F Lancero (muuuuuch beter than the other vitolas to me)
Illusion Holy Lance (prefer the Candela version of this, it's basically the only candela cigar I whole-heartily recommend. Illusione's one of the few brands that gets Candela right anyway, so try their others, just don't expect the ALec Bradleys and RP's of the world to get a candela to taste good)
Tat Black/Brown Lancero
Probably not thinking of a bunch of others (and didn't even mention Cubans) but that list is a good starting point.
Works the other way as well, a small ring gauge can be the WORST in the line! A cigar that you think is, OK, not bad, in a big ring might make you reaching for the mouthwash in a lancero!
