How are those Diesel's?? Keep seeing them around...seem like an "underdog" sort of a smoke. Not too much attention, but they keep showing up in a few respectable humi's.

Diesel's are a great smoke! Worth every cent, IMHO.

The Diesels are very nice -- especially for an inexpensive cigar. I have never had any draw or burn issues with any of them and they have decent flavor. Definitely on the recommended list!

Diesel's are great, and I hear the shorty's are even better!
I love the nUb Maduro (only one I actually like from Nub)
and I'm willing to bet that the Shorty outshines the
Nub knowing how Meticulous, and particular AJ Fernandez
is about his cigars!

I've only tried a handful, but i've never had a draw/construction/
burn problem with his cigars to date! Can't say the same for other
manufacturers. This guy is gonna be around for a Looooong time!

Ashton Heritage. A revisited smoke for the course and was absolutely exceptional.

On the cheaper end I was very surprised by Alec Bradleys Harvest 1997 Habana. Very good stick.

My repertoire is very limited. My favorite smoke I've had so far is a CAO Brazilia Gol!. I should've bought more than a 5 pack. Maybe I should try cigarbid.... but I've been avoiding that site thus far. I haven't even typed in the url yet for fears of no return.
