I've yet to try a Diesel cigar, but have heard nothing but rave reviews about them. Figured I'd buy a box and give them a try. Was wondering if people prefer the torpedo (5"x56) or the nub (4.5"x60). I found a nice deal on them and can get a box of 20 of the nubs for $65.00 and a box of 30 of the torps for $80.00.

Good lord you replied before I even posted. hah!

I was thinking of getting the torps anyways. Seems a better value. 30 vs 20. On CI and Cigar.com the price is the same. They both $99.00 and you get 10 more with the torps.

I'm not getting them through CI. I got a $50.00 gift certificate to another shop that has them at $80.00. So essentially I have to pay $30.00 for 30 cigars.

CI has them for $99.95. And they are "back-ordered" on the cutter deal.

what shop has them for $80? Need to order a box too, and if I can save $20 I will ;)

While I think the Shorty as a bit stronger and bolder, I prefer the Unholy Cocktail because it's a smaller ring gauge.

I prefer the shorty version. I love the larger ring guage and it seems to last me a bit longer than the torpedoes.But I love all the Diesel's.

I have only had the torpedo, but with some age they're really great. I'd love to try the Shorty and new Unlimited as well.

The Shorty lasted longer for me, but I prefer the UC Torp. The flavors were more pronounced and had no burn issues.

The torpedo (Unholy Cocktail) is my favorite. Packed tight, long good burn, smooth yet robust enough to pack a bit of a punch. Just the way I like em! Enjoy and let me know what you think!

The entire Diesel line is delicious so you can't go wrong with any of them.

I bought a box of torps and the big bad ultimates. All diesels are great. Buy both....solve the problem.

I like all the Diesels but the UHC is my favorite!
I want to keep a box around, these are a go to!
And the price is right!

What's so great about Torps? I don't see what the hype is about.

Didn't know the Unholy came in a NUB size... Either way, I love the Torps... I just ordered a fiver of them last week. When I get around to getting a larger humidor they will be a permanent box purchase.

I miss Nickerson.

Was he banned for real? I thought it was a joke.. #didntseethethumbsdownlogo

Ive loved the handful of UHC that i've smoked! They remind me of smoking chocolate milk!:D

I've never tried the shorty, and the one unlimited that i smoked (d5 toro i believe) was one of the best cigars i've smoked all year! AJ Fernandez is
the man!

All the Diesels are great to me but the UC just seems to have the best flavor profile. Alot of good natual tobacco flavor that is smooth and well balanced throughout the burn. Not to mention the price! 30 for $99 on CI is a good deal!
