The Diplomaticos #5 is a good introduction to the tastes that make a Cuban cigar famous. If Montecristo is the mainstream representation and draw of Cubans, the Diplomatico cigars are a very good opening act. You can't go wrong with this cigar - reasonably priced and well tasting. These cigars used to exist in semi boite nature of 10 and 25 cigars as well.

The pre revolution Diplomaticos cigar brand was introduced in 1966. The Diplomatico cigars were supposedly a second branch of the Montecristo cigars and they primarily aimed for the French cigar market. Diplomaticos is a Habanos local brand, with a minor market share.
Diplomaticos is one of the few Habanos cigar brands which was since the beginning devoted to only handmade cigars. The Diplomatico cigar sizes and names are similar to the Montecristo's, but the Diplimaticos cigars are made at the Jose Marti cigar factory.
These cigars are mainly considered to be medium to full bodied and the tabacco used for the Diplomaticos cigars comes from the premium Vuelta Abajo region in Cuba.
