Review Notes: I probably have to re-write these after I finish the entire box over the next three years (I like to sample as I age them). By the fifth I guess I won't be stocking these in large numbers. Draw is pretty decent, not the best. The second one in the box was plugged. Cedar, creaminess, rich flavors. But not as great as Magnum 46, Partagas Serie D No. 4 or H.Upmann No.2. But a good alternative to have in your humidor if you have a large one at home.

Review Notes: This was my first Diplomaticos. It will not be my last. I thoroughly enjoyed every inch of this Cigar. To me it had a nice Sweet Cedar taste. By Mid-Stick there was a noticeable Tingle on my tongue that I've never had before. I'm buying more of these to stock up my Humidor.

Review Notes: Flawless wrapper, very small veins and invisible seams. There was a bit of plume visible, indication the box probably had a bit of age. Great draw. From first puff to the nub, the aromas and flavors wowed me; rich woods and spices, without a hint of harshness or bitterness. Mid stick there were some sweet caramel notes as well. Very enjoyable, the perfect end to a great day. Great price point; this will become one of my go to cigars.

Review Notes: I bought a box of Diplomatico #2's opened it when I got home and noticed the color of the cigar was much lighter than I had seen in the past. The first one I smoked a few years ago had a dark brown shiny/ oily wrapper to it. The box I am speaking of currently had cigars of light brown coloration, perfect construction and all were nearly flawless, with barely any veins to speak of. The pre light smell was not necessarily distinct, I think the Montecristo number two definitely smells much stronger before lighting it, however, that is a much stronger cigar. Many people have left reviews of this cigar indicating it is medium to full bodied, I disagree completely. This cigar is mild to medium, and never in the past has been more than a medium cigar. In fact it is one of the lightest cuban cigars I have smoked. It is creamy, somewhat nutty, and although an awesome cigar, somewhat non-complex. The flavor is good enough for me not to care about complexity though. It is a great cigar to smoke earlier in the day with a cup of coffee. It only ashed twice the entire time i smoked it, and this seems to be typical of a well maintained Diplo 2. There was no real runs, and it never went out on me. All in all, this is a smoke I go back to when Im craving a straightforward mild to medium cuban. Lastly, because of its relative rarity, at least in the US, when comparing it to the Montecristo #2 or other cuban brands like Cohiba, I feel more like a connoisseur when I pull one of these out of my humidor. Not to degrade the greatness of Monte or Cohiba.

Review Notes: a fine cigar,flavors of cocoa,choc,cedar and beauty. the wrapper is a light brown in color. a cigar with a medium kick,tha ash is white and the burn is like a fish tail.its winter now i'm on the deck with a patio heater and a fine cigar, another great smoke. lift the embargo now. let freedom reign in cuba on cuba cigars and rum.
