Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Okay. I haven't tried one yet, but based on the positive comments here, I just pulled the trigger on a box of these! I can't wait to try it!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

awesome! and these are a steal at a little over $3.00 a stick...I have smoked cigars that cost 3x as much and don't come close to the Diesel

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I love these things

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I was able to pick up a box of 30 for $90.00 shipped. Seems like a great price on these! I can't wait to try them! :ss

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Just got my box today! Do you guys that have purchased a box of these leave them wrapped in a bundle in the box, or do you take them out and place them with singles?

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I take them out and let them acclimate to the proper RH in my humidor..In my experience, cigars that arrive in the mail are usually too wet to smoke for me...
I either dry box them, or place them in the humidor..either way I take them out of the box...
BTW, keep your humidor at 65% RH....trust me, your cigars will smell/taste/smoke much better

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

You can leave them in the box. some say it helps them to age better. But if your not going to age them, then take em out.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I just smoked one that Fissure send me, I like it a lot.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I gonna have to pick one up and try it after all this talk about the Diesel. It sounds like it will be worth the purchase.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Was looking at these by chance today, mostly because of the attention grabbing name. Sounds like they are worth a try. I figured with that name it was trickery to get buyers.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I hate to be the lone nay-sayer here but I've had a couple and they're just okay. I'd try a few before a box purchase.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Did you smoke them right off the truck? or did you let them rest fora few days first? that can make a huge difference...
IMO, cigars are much better if kept at 65% RH, as opposed to 70% RH...

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Never fear being a naysayer. :) If we all had the same tastes, there's be a lot fewer sticks to sample. :r Everyone seems to love the Brick House, but my reaction to it is like yours to this. :tu

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Finally tried on out of the box I recently acquired. This was a great cigar! Paired well with some Woodford Reserve Master's Collection!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I smoked my 2nd one today. Perfect burn and really tasty. They sure do pack a punch. The spice tends to mellow a bit toward the middle but never really goes away. For $3 and change, it's a pretty solid smoke.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I should be back in Germany sometime in Feb, and I have several boxes waiting there. I'll have to send a couple your way because we all know you have to try at least a couple to form an informed opinion.:D

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

on the devil site for 87 quick bid... I have a box on the way!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Wow... Thanks for the review! I am DYING to try one of these now!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I am going to try a few next time I put an order in online. They sound like a great stick. Thanks for the review.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I'd already purchased these, with my box on the way, when I came across this review. Quite excited to dig into it, and with 30 at my disposal, I might be tempted to smoke one in my building's mailroom, but let the rest cool off for a bit.

Thanks!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I guess we're together on this one. Let it sit two months @ 65% and I didn't like the taste of it at all! I won't be buying anymore.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I had one of these last night and I thought the initial review was pretty much spot on even though my was ROTT. I'm going to stash the other 29 sticks for a bit.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I've smoked 3 that I've been bombed with, & really have enjoyed them. Hard to beat at the price. I picked up a 5'er just this morning with a free shipping code, so I snagged them for $20... Which IMO is a steal for this smoke.:tu

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Joe's got them on the daily deal today, 10 for 29.99 and free shipping.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Hurry up mailman with my damn diesels!

Looking forward to seeing what the hype is all about. Heard some good things and some not so good things. So, we'll see. Thanks for the review!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Joe Cigar has these up today for the daily deal. 10 for $30 w/ free shipping.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

tenbaseg, thanks for the heads up. compliments on your greenman suit, btw.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Thanks for the info.............just ordered mine last night!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Thanks for the review. I should have a box arriving tomorrow

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Box got here a few days ago, I can't wait to smoke one tonight!!!!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I was given one by brother Wayne80 (thanks Wayne) which he lets his stuff sit...the stick he gave to me I let sit for 1 1/2 months and I am smoking it now....the only flavor I get is burnt bitterness...I think it is harsh...nothing like the Liga Privada 52 I smoked last nite which was very good.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I'll let you guys know in a few days... thanks Joe!! :D

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Okay, so I just smoked mine... not very impressed with it. Thought the construction was nice, burn was nice, but flavor wise, not very thrilled with it. I don't want to say one dimensional but it was very woodsy throughout the entire smoke, had a few hints of coffee/mocha but other than that, I was not too impressed.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Just received mine! Will try one out tonight....................

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Eric, the Liga is a $12 stick! The Diesel is a $3! Cmon man! :r

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

That was a good smoke...........it was consistant!:tu

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I've just ordered my first fiver in a split in here thanx to Mario !!!

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

Scored a box from cbid (and a box of LHCs). I noticed the QB price was a couple bucks higher this time around.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I just got done smoking this stick and your review is dead on! The only difference I had was the pepper faded away rather quickly in the first third but I was happy and pleased it did. +1 on a great review and great stick.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I am not a fan of Pennsylvania broadleaf, it was used in place of Connecticut
broadleaf during the "Cigar Boom Era" 1993 through 1997 wasn't a fan of it then or now. I recall it was used in many machine made cigars.

It seems to me that the company's using it are trying to hit a price point
at or under $3.00. It is not for me I am past the point of trying to find a cheep daily smoke, as said many times before "Life and time is too short to smoke cheep cigars"

The good side is a myriad of cigars out there now which was not available when I started smoking

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I just smoked the first one out of my box... While not the best smoke ever... An honest good smoke! Had a strong barnyard smell out of the box, it was mellow and picked up a bit of spice in the last 1/3rd. Nice smoke volume and was well balanced, although not a ton of flavor complexity. I will easily finish the box and most likely order another box if they are all this decent.

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I really hope you mean "life is too short to smoke bad cigars", because 'cheep' and bad are not always the same thing... plenty of cheap, good smokes available these days...

of course maybe you do mean 'cheep' and you enjoy your cigar with a bunch of birds :r

Re: Diesel "Unholy Coctail"
 

I think you mean Cheap.......................:r
