Thanks, I'll warm my son about that!!!

Did you like the flavor of the cigar itself?

The name "Diesel" is kind of a turn off for me. Hope they taste better than Diesel fumes.

I have a can of Diesel out in the shop - not really a compelling name IMO.

I didn't want to bury a stick after only one offering but it was very harsh and was tough to get through for me.

I'm not one to suggest "aging" NC's normally as most that I smoke have already been aged.

To answer your question, no I didn't like the taste...

I hope your experience is different than mine.

The ones I am sending out tomorrow have been resting in my humi for about 2 yrs, so hopefully that has helped!

I think you are right, at the very least the "harshness" I experienced should have subsided. I'm actually interested to see how they smoke now!
