Diesel Vintage Series is expanding to include a new blend called Diesel Vintage Series Natural. The five-cigar collection will debut in March, shipping to retailers on the first of the month.
Diesel Vintage Series Natural compliments Diesel Vintage Series, the Maduro-wrapped line that launched last year. Both blends were made to deliver the luxury of premium, aged tobaccos at an accessible price.
Handcrafted at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez in Estelí, Nicaragua and developed in collaboration between AJ Fernandez and Justin Andrews, Diesel Vintage Series Natural is a Nicaraguan-forward smoke with deeply-aged filler tobaccos.
Justin Andrews said:
“For Diesel Series Natural, AJ and I took the opportunity to highlight the aged tobacco in the blend. We introduced a natural wrapper to deliver a transformative effect on the blend and make the aging of the filler more pronounced. The result is a cigar that not only delivers the signature, bold experience that Diesel is known for, but also introduces layers of rich and satisfying complexity.”
Made with an Ecuadorian wrapper, a Nicaraguan Habano binder from Estelí and a range of Nicaraguan Jalapa filler tobaccos aged from five to seven years, the cigar begins with creamy notes that transition to earthiness as the cigar progresses. A characteristic Nicaraguan spice and cedar undertone is found throughout.
