Default Diesel Cigars

I just ordered some Diesel Cigars on a whim. Any info on these? I am pretty new to Cigar smoking and have no idea what I like yet so I am experimenting with different types!

I like them- they are a of a strong medium/ strong strong depending on the blend, but well blended and good reliable smoke at a good price point. Not a contender for best cigar ever, but earned a place in the humi.

I always suggest the Diesel Corona as a good starting point. Full bodied flavor in a compact, short smoke. Gives you a good idea of the Diesel flavor profile.

Depends which ones you ordered. The Diesel Unlimited are great, IMHO.

Awesome now I can't wait till they get here. I got a 6 Cigar sampler unsure of which 6 since I knew nothing about them I didn't really read which ones lol. But it does come with a nice lighter and cutter so I figure if I enjoy 2-4 of them and find 1-3 to buy again mission accomplished.

I love the Unholy Cocktail. I just burned on that has been sleeping for just over a year and it was even better! If you like them, watch Cbid, they end up on freefall frequently. Usually bottoms out around $75 for 30

Most of the Diesel line packs a fair punch, being on the stronger side. I remember reading a review that described a Diesel cigar as being more like a classic hard rocker than a classical orchestra (something like that)!!! Point is they are a bit rough around the edges and pretty good cigars. Like Jessee said, Unholy Cocktail is really good. Same for Unlimited Maduro. IMHO, most are box worthy.

Good, solid cigars that can be had at very reasonable prices. My favorites are the Unholy Cocktail, the Corona, and the Unlimited d.x.

They've been solid since day one. Certainly not going to win any awards, but there'snothing wrong with them. You could do a lot worse for the money, brother.

Another vote for the Unholy Cocktail. All the Diesel line are good in my opinion.

Love the Unlimited and the Unholy Cocktail. Good bang-for-your-buck smokes that reward a year or two in the humi...

MagicDrop, the Diesel SixPack from CI? 2 Unholy cocktail, 2 Unlimited, 2 Hair of the Dog? UHC is a mean bastard, at least for me. Didnt like the others, but will try again at some point.

I personally enjoy the Unholy Cocktail. I keep at least a 5er on hand.

Diesels are really good smokes. Like others have said, they're not on the Padron or Fuente level but they're not that far off either. For the price, you can't beat them. For a newbie though, they are absolutely on the strong side....so watch yourself....
