Review Notes: Bursting through with flavor. Every time I try a new non-Cuban I'm hoping for something like this and be damned if I didn't finally find it. I have sampled alot of the cigars from this top 25 list, and this is simply my favorite. I'd rather have 2 of these than an Opus X, although the Opus X has it's time and place. I smoke at least a few of these a week.

Review Notes: This is my current evening daily, and my favorite non-cuban stick @ this price. I have more boxes of these in my cabinet then any other. Loads of silky-smooth leathery/nutty/creamy flavor that stays with me hours after. Sweeter then Padron 64's, chewier mouth-feel then VSG's. These remind me of an amped-up Davidoff Millennium, with a touch less build quility. There are occasional slanty burns, but for this flavor, I'm not complaining. This stick is pure desert & 100% recommended.

Review Notes: I smoked this huge cigar at a party two weeks ago. Everyone was looking at the size of this big guy. However, many stated how nice it smelled for a cigar. I was expecting it to be a great cigar and it was to the very end. I will have to buy a few more of these bad boys!

Review Notes: All I can say is fur-getta bout it! This cigar had wonderful hints of spice an cinnamon for about the first 2/3 of the smoke. The last 1/3 is pure lay back and groove. I got a strong, sweet, carmel-like flavor that I had never tasted in any cigar prior to this one; at that point it was soooo good that I almost ate the damn thing!! Yes they cost alot, but in this case, I got what I paid for and then some. Sorry OpusX, Diamond's got ya beat by a country mile.

Review Notes: This Diamond Crown Maximus No.1 was a VERY expensive cigar, but does not disappoint. This may be one of the best, if not THE best, cigar I have ever smoked. Everything was perfect about it -- I usually smoke cigars to the band, but with this one, I tore it off and kept on smoking.
