BigSlick Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 OK, this is my first review of a cigar. I may have read way too far into this cigar, but so be it. I learned alot from doing this. So here we go. Cigar: Diplomaticos #4 Size: 42x5 1/8 Shape: Semi-box pressed The Beginnings. The first quarter of this cigar tasted of almonds, cream and a hint of vanilla. With a short finish, it left a slight sweetness on the tip of my tongue. The draw was perfect, not too loose, not too tight. The ash was white to gray, with waves and little to no flaking. The Mids. The cigar still had lingering characteristics of the beginnings and began to mature to a coffee with cinammon. It gained a slight spice that could be tasted only on the roof of my mouth, lips and tongue. The coffee and cinnamon tastes were very brief. The cigar began having a slight leathery taste. The Ends.:-( This cigar ended with a spice that consumed my mouth and tongue. The leather taste subsided and the cigar became woody and earthy all the way to the nub. I would classify this cigar as medium bodied with a consistant burn from start to finish. This was the first Diplomaticos I have smoked. I enjoyed it very much. It was very complex. Thanks to the fellow FOH Member that gifted me this cigar. He knows who he is. ;-) TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbreath Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Nice to the point review. Find that I'm liking these more and more as time goes on. Have a couple of boxes from 02 that are aging very well. Thanks for the review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokinLightning Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Good review, for a small cigar it does seem to pack in some flavor. I am looking forward to trying some more of these myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckguy Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Nice review, thank you. I intend to post one up on the Diplo 5 soon as well...one I've enjoyed but have had a crazy high "dowel" factor, if you know what I mean. Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Presidente Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Excellent Review and thanks ! Dip 4 lives in the shadow of the Monte 4. If you enjoy a little spice to your cigar....take a walk on the wild side ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiley Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Thanks for your review! These are one I can depend on. They always start off a little weak, but quickly pick up steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
