Diesel BBQ Series Pulled Pork
The Diesel brand is launching a new limited-edition cigar that gets its name from the world of barbecue.
It’s the Diesel Backyard Barbecue Series Pulled Pork, a 5 x 56 robusto gordo that uses a habano rosado wrapper of undisclosed origin, a Nicaraguan binder from Jalapa, and fillers from Honduras’s Jamastran region and the Esteli and Condega regions of Nicaragua.
The blend was designed to be a spin on North Carolina barbecue, with a press release saying that it boasts earthy notes of charred wood and hazelnut.
The cigars are made at Tabacalera AJ Fernandez Cigars de Nicaragua S.A. and come priced at $7.49 per cigar. They are offered in 10-count boxes, with production limited to just 2,000 of those boxes.
“The Diesel BBQ Pulled Pork is THE cigar of the summer,” said Joe Krzyston, assistant brand manager for Diesel, in a press release. “This unique seasonal offering is just in time for grilling season, with its rich and full-bodied flavor. If you’re looking for your new backyard cigar, this is it.”
