Diplomaticos #1 FJN JUL 2005 SSR

 

Last of a 5er I split with a great BOTL. 

 

Draw is a bit tight but manageable. 

 

1st 1/3. 

Light coffee spine with a bit of spice wavering intermingled with cocoa. 

Reminds me of a Monte /Partagas mix. 

2nd

Body picks up to medium with good amount of pepper/spice. 

The finish really rests on my palate. 

A bit of sweetness wavers between the spice.

Burn is flawless 

3rd

Cream and cocoa take back the reins with a little bit of a nut flavor background. 

Smooth smooth smooth!

What a great cigar! 13 years and such a deep flavor profile legs for days.

 

Good bye friend.

Great cigar.

I burned trough a box of these like they were m&ms after I picked em up in Santiago de Cuba back 2003.  I think the box was less than a hundred bucks.  Wish I could get a do-over on those. ??‍♂️
