persianpirate Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Heard from a couple sources today that the entire marca is being discontinued. Can anyone confirm this? I've heard mixed reviews about Diplos and haven't tried any myself, but am now curious in picking up a few to at least try (well played Habanos)...
Puros Y Vino Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 I've heard the same. They might as well. They're down to the Dip2 only. There's a Spanish regional coming out though. Try the Dip 4 if you can find it.
stargazer14 Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 The Dip 4's had one of my all-time favorite flavor profiles in a cigar. Loved them. (if anyone comes across a source, please PM me) The Dip 2's, still available, are good also but for some reason I tend towards a Monti 2 before those.
Ophidion Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 I have a handful of 05 diplo 1s and they are amazing. Few boxes of dip 4s as well (my favorite PC). Ill be heart broken when I run out.
zmancbr Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Spanish regional has been out for a while now. Not happy they may cut the entire marca, but can't understand why they kept the worst of the lot (Dip 2) and got rid of the great 3-4-5 (Have not smoked the single 1 I have yet. Definitely agree there...the #2 is my least fav. I love the #1 and #4. Was sad to see them both go. Have been savoring the Dips that I have left.
Perla Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Diplo #1 is really really amazing. Its a shame that the marca is cut down. Bought a Diplo #5 with some age at the weekend. Will smoke it soon.
MattW Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 A real shame, I tired my first Diplo the other day, a no.3 from 2001, was a fantastic cigar! Ah well, I'll try and pick up a few while they're still about, got a good friend who lives in Madrid who's going to try and pick me up a box of the Spanish regionals!
Lotusguy Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 The marca died with the #3,4,5 - this is just the funeral.
El Presidente Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Heard from a couple sources today that the entire marca is being discontinued. Can anyone confirm this? I've heard mixed reviews about Diplos and haven't tried any myself, but am now curious in picking up a few to at least try (well played Habanos)... We heard it last year and it was to be confirmed this February. It looks like they are as good as gone.
Rye Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Hopefully their hiatus is as long lived as the Vegueros
melies Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Will have to buy some 2 while they are available
backslide Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Will have to buy some 2 while they are available I'm thinking the same thing. If you want to spit a box I'm game Melies. BTW love the new pics on Instagram brotha.
GernBlansten Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Will have to buy some 2 while they are available I'm thinking the same thing. If you want to spit a box I'm game Melies. BTW love the new pics on Instagram brotha. If you can wait until Wednesday afternoon for confirmation, I'd like join you guys. That would qualify us for the three box discount on the Prez's current sale.
El Presidente Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 I'm thinking the same thing. If you want to spit a box I'm game Melies. BTW love the new pics on Instagram brotha. Get them through the Multi Box sale after 12 today and go into the draw for the ORIS
persianpirate Posted February 26, 2013 Author Posted February 26, 2013 i get a cut from this sale right?
Bartolomeo Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 I love Dips, trying to buy what ever I can find Bart
in0gravity Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Maybe they will be relaunched in a couple of years similar to Vegueros.
CaptainQuintero Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Spanish regional has been out for a while now. Not happy they may cut the entire marca, but can't understand why they kept the worst of the lot (Dip 2) and got rid of the great 3-4-5 (Have not smoked the single 1 I have yet. That box split came in this morning, I'm not a fan of the marca but they smell great, review in a couple of weeks when they have settled!
mazolaman Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Oh Goodie... They got rid of some 42 gauges, and brought out out some 50+......boo.
dangolf18 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Not going to miss the Dips that much. I've the 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The 1 and 3 were way too mild. The best of the lot imo is the No.5, followed by the 4 and 2. If they are discontinued, I'll probably get a box of the No.2 just to have.
Jnaube Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 I just can't understand why they discontinue the Dip and resurrect the Vegueros? Seriously? Again, HSA and their decisions.
polarbear Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 I I've got half a box of no2's in my humi rhat I've had for a couple of years. I say half a box because when I got them everyone I smoked was either bland or plugged. Not a fan
stargazer14 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Get rid of the Dips and add two new Monti's to the line, as if there are not enough - we live in a crazy world.
GernBlansten Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 If you can wait until Wednesday afternoon for confirmation, I'd like join you guys. That would qualify us for the three box discount on the Prez's current sale. Sadly, I'm out. Bonus not what I expected.
melies Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 I'm thinking the same thing. If you want to spit a box I'm game Melies. BTW love the new pics on Instagram brotha. Thanks man! but I have to wait until the middle of next month, some medical bills have put me down on my spending spree :/ You also have great photos!
