Diplomaticos No.2

Overview: Diplomatios No.2

Diplomaticos No. 2 are a highly coveted Piramides vitola, with a 156mm length and a 52 ring gauge. This vitola is a favorite among Habanos lovers, likely a direct result of the elite production as only the finest hands at the Jose Marti factory are asked to roll these cigars.

The exterior of the No. 2 is a gorgeous milk chocolate color that gives off aromas of caramel, cedar and spice. Large plumes of smoke that offer a luxurious thickness and display a medium to full body flavour with a slow burn that lasted just over an hour.

Initially we noted earthy flavours of wood mixed with florals that were consistent until the finish. As we continued smoking richer flavours of vanilla, nutmeg and almond developed and combined together to make an interesting and complex bouquet that left a surprising spiciness on the tongue.

This cigar is not for our novice smokers, as it offers a medium to full body and strength and the complexity of flavours, not to mention size, could be overwhelming to an unseasoned palate. That being said this is a lovely smoke that you can expect to enjoy for just over an hour, try pairing it with an espresso or a Cuban coffee for that extra kick.
