Diamond Crown #5

rno · 08-29-2012, 11:02 AM

i just smoked a Diamond Crown #5 robusto with my morning coffee and the construction was so so , it had a mainly black ash was a little harsh the flavor was okay but nothing special for a stick that cost me $10.50 it was trash if it was a $3 or $4 stick id be happy with it , maybe it was just the batch or something but i was not impressed at all

sorry if my review sucked im new to all of this

I too have not been a fan of the Diamond Crowns. Granted I've only smoked about 5 of these...but I will not purchase another. IMHO for the pricepoint, they are just not worth it. That is the great thing about this hobby...everyone has different opinions on sticks/brands.

I'm not impressed with them, either.

Calm down, sport. Its hard to read/follow posts when there is no capital letters and/or little punctuation. Like you said, "sorry if my review sucked im new to all of this". So consider it constructive critcism.

I agree. This post gave me a headache.

Now, none of us are perfect in our spelling/grammar but a little effort goes a long way.

Is this the regular or the maximus that you are talking about?

I think the regular isn't very good at all. The maximus on the other hand I always enjoyed. Of course, it'd been a while since I've had one.

I'm with you on this! Not a fan of the regulars. But the Diamond Crown Maximus is a totally different smoke!
