Diesel Cigars: Crafted by True Experts
The Diesel brand, as you might guess, has nothing to do with automobiles or clothing. It is an exclusive in-house brand of Cigars International, operating under the umbrella of General Cigars and the Scandinavian Tobacco Group. Diesel cigars are produced by A. J. Fernandez in Nicaragua. However, these complex ownership structures do not affect the quality of the cigars – all involved companies are experts in their field.
Collaboration Between Diesel and A. J. Fernandez
Anyone familiar with A. J. Fernandez knows that the Cuban expatriate does not produce mild cigars in his Nicaraguan factory. Quite the opposite – A. J. is known for his bold and intense cigars. This is evident in both his own lines and numerous commissioned productions. In addition to Diesel, he is also responsible for Man o’War, Sons of Anarchy, and Ave Maria.
Diesel cigars are not a light read for the palate. Those who appreciate intense and full-bodied flavors will find great enjoyment in these high-quality blends. The carefully selected tobaccos come primarily from Nicaragua, complemented by premium leaves from other regions.
An Overview of All Diesel Cigars
The Unlimited Origin line, with its distinctive red band at the foot, impresses with its powerful aromas. This is due not only to its exquisite filler but also to its Ligero wrapper from Ecuador. One standout series is Barrel Aged, where the tobaccos have been aged for several years in former bourbon barrels. A similar process is used for Diesel’s Cask Aged cigars, whose binder leaves developed their distinctive aroma in old sherry casks.
A true rarity is the Crucible series: Only 3,000 boxes exist worldwide, with just 250 reaching the German market. A perfect opportunity for connoisseurs!
