The Diesel Vintage Series cigars represent a collaboration between Justin Andrews and A.J. Fernández, bringing together the artistry of aged tobacco and expert craftsmanship at an accessible price point. Crafted at Fernández’s renowned Tabacalera AJ Fernandez factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, this series is designed to offer cigar enthusiasts a premium, well-aged smoking experience that showcases both depth and complexity.
The Diesel Vintage Series is available in two distinct wrappers: Mexican San Andrés (Maduro) and an Ecuadorian variant (Natural). Each cigar in the series is built around a Nicaraguan-forward blend, featuring a carefully selected Nicaraguan binder and vintage Nicaraguan fillers from the Jalapa region, with the tobaccos aged between five to eight years. This aging process adds layers of richness and complexity, making each cigar in the Diesel Vintage Series a testament to the art of tobacco aging.
What do the Diesel Vintage Series cigars taste like?
The Diesel Vintage Series cigars offer two distinct yet complementary flavor experiences. The Maduro version delivers a bold and robust profile with rich notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and black pepper, balanced by a hint of sweetness from the aged Nicaraguan filler. In contrast, the Natural version provides a smoother, medium-bodied experience, highlighting flavors of toasted nuts, cedar, and a subtle creaminess that enhances the aged tobacco’s complexity. Both cigars embody the signature Diesel boldness while offering their own unique, satisfying smoking journey.
