Diesel Atonement

The Diesel Atonement is a limited-edition cigar that was created as an exclusive release for members of the Tobacconist’s Association of America (TAA). The cigar features a leathery, oily, dark Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed wrapper that covers a Connecticut Broadleaf binder and a Nicaraguan filler. This is a bold, peppery smoke that is balanced by an underlying sweetness. The blend was developed by legendary cigar crafter AJ Fernandez. The cigars are handmade in Nicaragua at the Tabacalera Fernandez factory. The TAA is a group of the top tobacconists in the nation. It consists of about 80 retailers and 40 manufacturers, which Neptune Cigars is a proud member of.

Cigar Origin
Nicaragua
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.

Wrapper Color
Maduro
Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Maduro wrapper can go from dark coffee brown with a reddish tint to blackish brown (the latter also called Oscuro).
Wrapper
Ecuadorian Sumatra-Seed
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Ecuador is the perfect place to grow wrappers, because it is located on the Equator! And it has rich soils too. The weather conditions, with a nearly permanent cloudy sky, provide a natural shade, protecting the wrapper plants from sunshine and allowing the tobacco to grow thin and light. Ecuador supplies Connecticut and Sumatra type wrappers to many cigar factory in the world.
Binder
USA Connecticut Broadleaf
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
USA Connecticut Broadleaf tobacco is grown in the Connecticut River Valley area. The soil in this region is of glacial origins. The tobacco is dark, oily, flavorful, and aromatic. It is used primarily as a maduro wrapper, but it also serves as an excellent binder.
Filler
Nicaragua
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Rolled by
Handmade
Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.
Manufacturer
AJ Fernandez
Cuban expatriate AJ Fernandez produces handmade cigars in Esteli, Nicaragua at the Tabacalera Fernandez factory. Fernandez learned everything he knows about tobacco and cigarmaking from his late grandfather, cigar legend Alejandro Robaina.

Love these cigars, glad Neptune Cigars had them and shipped them!

Eduardo G.02/27/2023About: Diesel Atonement TAA 2022 Toro 6" * 52

This is a very musty cigar. Flavor bomb, but the flavors might not be for everyone. Its not a refined smoke, but for what its going for it delivers very strongly.

Pawel J.02/08/2023About: Diesel Atonement TAA 2022 Toro 6" * 52

Very much savoury stick with plenty dark espresso, earth and spice. Balanced Cigar I would say Medium to Medium/Full There is a note that can't identify but it is on a gingery/Indian spice side.
