Just wanted to share my experience with this cigar and as a warning, I'm not one for words so sorry to those who write awesome, descriptive reviews; I wish I could.
Smoke: Diplomaticos No. 2 (EMA SEP 07)
Drink: Dark and Stormy
Date: 3/14/13
Occasion: 50 degree weather after 6-8 inches of snow in the beginning of the week
Started off pretty spicy to my surprise as I've heard these are quite mild. Some words that may describe the Dip 2 so far is nuttiness with some upfront white pepper.
In the second half, the cigar is pretty medium bodied with some good creamy, very satisfying habano flavor (y'all know what I mean).
I finished the last stretch of the cigar and was happy to see that the cigar built up in strength and complexity. My palate was bombarded with sweet, creamy, nutty notes and some cinnamon in the back of my throat. One of my favorite things about this smoke besides the flavors was that I could easily reach for another. I love Nics but sometimes I feel like I can't quite do that with them.
All in all, I am happy with the plentiful volumes of smoke, solid construction, flavors, and am excited to smoke the rest of my Diplomaticos No 2s.
