Diplomaticos - Cancilleres - Box of 25
Diplomaticos - Cancilleres - Box of 25
A box of 25 cigars, the connoisseur's choice for laying down and ageing.
The first permanent addition to the Diplomáticos portfolio in many years. 'Canciller' is the Spanish term for the highest diplomatic rank.
Diplomáticos is a comparatively recent brand dating from the 1960s. Its original line-up closely resembled Montecristo's, even numbering its sizes rather than naming them. Its cigars are long filler, totally handmade. Flavour: Medium to Full.
Hunters & Frankau tasting notes
Complex and medium to full, moving from woody and floral notes to richer leather and nuts, with a subtle earthy finish.
Suggested pairings: Espresso, malt whisky, aged rum
