Just got my recent issue of the cigar.com magazine and they had a new Diesel in it, a 4.5x60 called the Shorty. It was made for a reality tv guy and its supposed to be a limited edition. Anyone smoked these and have any thoughts? Thinking about buying a box. Only 24 in a box compared to 30 of the regular diesels.

Is it a new blend? Or just a new nub?

Meh, more expensive for the same blend and named after some reality show wannabe. Fail.
I'll stick with the Unholy Cocktail.

I like Diesel, but I am not fan of large ring gauge.

I'm still waiting to try an unholy cocktail, so I'm behind.

I might buy a 5-pack just to say I've tried them. The Unholy Cocktail is good enough that I don't think I'd buy a box of another (maybe more expensive) version. Probably just pick up a box of the originals instead, or some more MOWR. Mmmm...

I will say that AJ Fernandez is a blending god. I haven't had a bad stick blended by him yet. -(P

Nice to hear about the MOWR, one of AJ's finest.

On topic, I am just looking forward to more information about the new diesels.

Same here. I'll stick to whats good. 60RG is too big IMO

From the Cigar.com catalog:
Measuring in at a stout 4.5"X60, this thick monster was crafted originally for Hollywood Reality TV Mogul Shorty Rossi [14:59] as a daily cigar and is now available here at Cigar.com. Anyone who has seen Shorty on his show "Pit Boss" [all 8 of you] knows he's an avid cigar fan.

I like a big fat ring gauge so this is right up my alley.

I like the Unholy Cocktail a lot!

I'll give these a try as well. $7 for a single/$99 for a box of 20.

Didn't see any 5-pack offer although it will probably show up on the Daily Deal at some point.

Actually there are 24 in a box.Makes for an even sweeter deal.

Except for the fact that you can get a box of 30 UCs for the same price. :td

This is all I've found:

If it was a torp/beli shape, I would maybe consider trying it...but a 60 rg is a bit much for me.

The devil site has a five pack of these listed.

I think I'll pass for now unless they turn out to be a different blend. I'm pretty happy with the UHC. I like the torpedo.
