About the Cigars:

Diesel Vintage Series Maduro was first released in 2023, while Vintage Series Natural hit shelves in 2024. Vintage Series Maduro combines aged tobacco with a unique style and tasting notes Diesel fans have come to know and love.

Similarly, Natural offers a smooth and spicy smoking experience. Both Vintage Series Maduro and Natural contain filler tobaccos aged between 5-8 years, and both lines will now feature the new Gigante as a full-time addition to their lineups.

Vintage Series Maduro boasts a Mexican San Andrés wrapper above a blend of aged Nicaraguan Habano tobaccos for a full-bodied smoke.

The follow-up, Vintage Series Natural, shares the same binder and filler tobaccos but instead includes an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper.

Tasting notes for Maduro include cocoa, leather, and hazelnut. Natural features tasting notes of cream, earth, and spice.

Vintage Series Maduro was born of a collaboration between AJ Fernandez and Justin Andrews, Business Development Manager of Scandinavian Tobacco Group’s (STG) North American Branded and Rest of World Divisions.

Joe Krzyston, Assistant Brand Manager of Diesel Cigars, said, “The Diesel Vintage Series Gigante line extension is everything fans want. More vintage tobacco, more expressions of great blends, and bolder Diesel flavor — across both our Maduro and Natural lines. If you loved Diesel Vintage Series before, you owe it to yourself to try this great, new frontmark.”

Diesel Vintage Series Maduro Gigante and Vintage Series Natural Gigante began shipping to retailers in early March. They were produced at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez Cigars de Nicaragua S.A.
